Neutronium... I am having early 2000s trivia website flashbacks! Wasn't a teaspoon of that stuff several tons or something?

[-] Soulg@ani.social 2 points 1 month ago

I'm not sure if it's a hard weight or just guesstimate to illustrate its heavy, but I always heard that a teaspoon would weigh as much as a city

A quick search just told me that it's been hypothesized that a teaspoon of it would weigh around 10 billion tons on Earth

Damn! How much does that weigh in feathers?

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Yep. Or a mountain, something like that.

[-] AmalgamatedIllusions@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago

On the order of a billion tons.
