QR4.3.5 Where did the Anti-matter go?

Matter and anti-matter are equivalent opposites, so while our atoms have negative electrons, an anti-matter universe would have positive electrons but to its inhabitants, the laws of physics would be exactly the same. Why then do we only see matter all around us? Did the big bang produce:

1) No anti-matter, for some unknown reason?

2) Matter and anti-matter equally, but the anti-matter in our universe is hidden?

3) Matter and anti-matter equally, but matter somehow overcame the anti-matter?

Physics dismisses the first option by its equations, and the second because no anti-matter meteors, planets, or stars have ever been seen. The current view is that the big bang made equal amounts of matter and anti-matter, but then matter somehow overcame anti-matter to give our universe. That no evidence supports this belief is called a mystery of physics:

The lack of anti-matter is a deep mystery that cannot be explained using the Standard Model.” (Oerter,2006) p101

Figure 4.7. Rotation in and on space

What then does a processing model conclude? A clockwise rotation in a space is anti-clockwise from the other side (Figure 4.7a), but a first-up rotation on a surface stays that way however it is viewed (Figure 4.7b). If our universe began with one photon, then it had to first vibrate up or down on the surface of space. And if it chose, say, to vibrate up first, then all its offspring would follow suit.

It follows that our universe became matter not anti-matter based on how its first photon chose to vibrate. Light then evolved into matter only, not matter and anti-matter as the standard model assumes, so the anti-matter the standard model is trying to explain away never was. The first choice of the first photon made our universe matter, and from then on, anti-matter was a path not taken. Nothing about our universe explains why it is made of matter not anti-matter because that choice was made before it began.
