Energy

'''Energy''' is the measure of a physical system's ability to do work. Although quantifiable, energy is not an absolute but must be measured with respect to a reference energy level (kinetic energy, chemical energy, thermal energy, etc.). Energy can be derived from many different reactions, the most common of which are [[matter-antimatter reaction]]s and [[nuclear fusion]], though like [[matter]], it cannot be created or destroyed. Obsolete means of converting energy include combustion and [[nuclear fission]]. An [[antimatter]] reaction is always calculated using [[Albert Einstein|Einstein]]'s equation, E=MC². In theory, the combined annihilation of one [[Earth measurements#Kilogram|kilogram]] of antimatter with one kilogram of matter will produce 1.8x10¹⁷ [[joule]]s of energy (180 petajoules).
