Earth and solar system is going around the milkyway galaxy.Te are huge interstellar clouds,gasses,dust clou?

There is every chance that we may encounter a huge positron cloud with high energy and all electrons will get nutralised.

This will stop the working of all electrical and electronic equipment mankind use and what will be our fate

    An electrical blackout wouldnt doom humanity, it would be a case of back to basics, there would be problems in some areas of food stortage and political turmoil but theres no way it would cuase a global extinction of the human race.

    Infact it might actualy have a positive effect by slowing down the harmfull effects we're having on the enviroment and slow down climate change.

    If the question is what will be our fate. I would say cancer and/or massive organ failure due to our DNA being melted by the high energy particles given off from matter anti-matter interaction. For those mole-people that live below ground and somehow escape the battering? I guess they get all our stuff. But if I may hazard, I think the answer to the implied question is... The event cannot happen because almost all of the anti-matter in the universe was completely used up in the creative moments of the Big Bang leaving only a small minute amount of regular matter left to make the universe. ((Everything we are is just scraps left over... Vishnu was right!)) Also the cloud of positrons flowing into the path of our solar system would meet the outstreaming of our sun many light hours away from our planet anyhow, and so if the polarized solar wind did not shove the cloud aside like same-poled magnets then the electrons would get their chance at a battle royal. So maybe the answer would be a fantastic light show?

    Positrons are a kind of antimatter. When antimatter meets matter, both are destroyed in an atomic explosion.

    If we encountered a cloud of positrons as big as the solar system, the atomic explosions would likely completely annihilate the solar system, and us with it.

    However, those positrons would be encountering regular matter as they drifted through the galaxy, and the explosions from that would be releasing a great amount of energy which we could see from here. So we would get lots of warning before encountering such a cloud. So far we haven't seen any, so we're probably safe.

    no cuz-as we travel around the galatic center everything follows the same path if it does not the hellosphere will filter out such a cloud

    Absolutely yes, that would explain global warming too! Really!!!
