To put my nerdiness fully on display, white dwarf matter is by far not the densest material in the universe. That goes to neutron degenerate matter, which makes up neutron stars. 100 million tons per cubic centimeter. A mountain in a thimble. It’s what happens when a white dwarf star exceed 1.4 times the mass of the sun, and electron degeneracy fails, which always results in a supernova. Any denser than that and you have a black hole, of hypothetically infinite density. Not theoretical because our laws of physics don’t apply there.

Damn those degenerate neutrons, hope they keep away.
We have enough degenerates already hanging around our world.

"white dwarf matter is by far not the densest material in the universe."

The minds of Democrats and their press sycophants come to mind as being denser! Latest revelation ... Joy Reid, again.

Not sure why they call it degenerate matter except that it’s reached the lowest possible energy state. Maybe like liberal Democrats have an affinity to the lowest common denominator. Drag queens as roll models. Whatever.

Actually the incorrect spelling might have been the most accurate.

Maybe a hybrid of DeNiro and Bloomberg...
