Believe it or not, Earth naturally produces antimatter.
A new study has discovered that some thunderstorms are powerful enough to beam gamma rays into space, and the process that produces the rays can also produce positrons, the antimatter partner of electrons. Of course, in this universe dominated by matter, antimatter doesn't last long. As soon as a positron encounters an electron, both are utterly destroyed, producing an immediate and intense burst of energy.
So, it seems extremely high energy explosions were occurring on Earth long before 1945.
