How do we know that there is more matter than antimatter? Isn’t it possible that some distant objects (maybe even entire galaxies) are made of antimatter?

So we can tell if a given galaxy is made of matter or anti-matter.

Basically, we should be seeing a lot of gamma rays that aren’t explained by anything else if there’s a border between matter and antimatter.

And we simply aren’t seeing that. This means that basically everything we can see is matter.
