I love the concept of a “neutron star.” I’d love to see the idea fleshed out in future episodes. The only issue I have is I think he went a little overboard with the density. 1 billion tons in a teaspoon sounds cool but it takes away from what is otherwise a very realistic idea. I think it should be toned down just a bit, maybe 10 tons for a teaspoon would be more believable. I’m pretty sure anything as dense as what is described would collapse into a black hole.

From what I am understanding here is that the time dilation between the particles in the neutron star and relatively empty space causes the gravity from the the difference in time trying to equalize itself. This may also happen on the atom scale but at barely noticeable gravity effect to us feeble humans. I really think gravity has something to do with non equal passage of time.

Speaking in real - you are highlighting a fascinating aspect of Einstein's general relativity, where gravity, influenced by mass warping spacetime, affects the passage of time. This phenomenon, known as gravitational time dilation, is most noticeable near massive objects like neutron stars. It does imply that at the atomic scale, or in regions with less significant gravitational fields, time dilation effects would be much subtler and harder to observe directly.

I read Steven Hawking's books with great care but that was a long time ago and they were certainly Best Sellers.

At 6:41 you mentioned strange matter as consisting of equal numbers of top and bottom quarks, as well as strange quarks. What you meant to say was up and down quarks, not top and bottom quarks, which are flavors of third generation quarks which do not have an approximate isospin symmetry like the up and down quarks.

What about black holes or quark stars? I know the density of supermassive black holes is potentially low if you include the entire volume contained within the event horizon but at the singularity the density is effectively infinite...

Being this dense, what would these stars consist of. What is the heaviest element that we know of and how can it be compressed to such extreme density?

Fantastic Video I learned and Enjoyed very much. 👏 bravo

Can anyone confirm whether or not the following ideas about neutron stars are true? These have fascinated me for years. 1) To an imaginary observer on the surface, the only sky visible would be confined to a hole overhead -- an illusion due to the intense gravity bending light from over the star's horizon, making it appear that the observer was at the bottom of narrow bowl. In other words, only light coming straight in from above could make it to the observer, and the horizon would appear to almost close up overhead. 2) If you were to somehow materialize on the surface, your atoms would almost instantaneously be spread out over a large area, disassociate in a flash, and become part of the star. Thanks!

Their magnetic field is the most f'd up aspect, but they're almost never mentioned in videos introducing neutron stars to people. Magnetars are just batshit crazy, but that's just very young neutron stars. At any rate, long story short, the magnetic fields of neutron stars, and magnetars in particular, is so strong it makes chemistry impossible in a pretty long range. If the sun was a neutron star, then the magnetic field would extend past Mercury before quickly declining. Atoms would no longer arrange their neutrons in clouds, but in columns, disabling all known chemistry from functioning. It's so powerful, it causes spacetime itself to crystallize, which is bonkers, but too complicated to explain here.

Humans may eventually understand all of the physics of the Universe, but we will never know WHY?

If no more nuclear reactions in neutron stars (or maybe i misunderstood) how does it still 'shine' ?

@maxstrelets263

Man, neutron stars collide when they're in binary systems or close enough to attract each other gravitationally, eventually spiraling in due to energy loss from emitting gravitational waves. The vast space between them might contain some matter, but as they near, their intense gravity dominates, possibly capturing or disrupting nearby debris. This process is slow on human timescales but inevitable over cosmic time.

Not to mention the fact that the neutron stars' gravitational reach wouldn't be greater than the original star that they replace, but would actually be WEAKER than the original star because it has shed much of its mass in the supernova and since the gravity of a star is dependent only on its mass and isn't dependant at all on its density.
