Laz! Good to hear ya! I’m sitting on the bomb everyone needs to worry about. If Yellowstone Caldera ever blows it’s over. Everything not dead directly will die from ash, starvation etc etc. BFD. I’m just trying to keep the old lady happy. Dude, it ain’t easy. We’re working on 51+ years and I’ve been climbing up hill the whole time. So relax, give your junk a scratch and stay safe. Oh yeah, the obit you done on you was the best thread, I’ve ever read. Stay safe. Regards

What sort of engineering would be required to create a teaspoon of neutron star matter? The sort that we will never be able to achieve. Anti-matter is far more destructive, by the way, but we cannot create more than a few subatomic particles of it at a time, and there is no known way to store it without it exploding.

Assuming that we can develop the technology at all, we wouldn’t be doing it in teaspoons, but in amounts that would let us generate energy.

But unlike nuclear power, it would take more energy to create it than it would release if used.

“”What sort of engineering would be required to create a teaspoon of neutron star matter?””

I remember one of my 10¢ Superman comic books. In order to save the world/galaxy/universe one more time, Superman flew to the surface of a neutron star and scooped up a handful of it.

That’s a technological issue. At one time, it would have cost more energy to gather oil than the energy gained from burning it as well.

I think it was the Carter admin that outlawed Neutron bombs so there’s nothing to worry about. There are rumors that Israel posseses the device but the Carter admin outlawed the neutron bombs so there’s nothing to worry about...😐

I had to look this up, but the surface gravity of a neutron star is about a trillion times the earth’s. That would be some feat. One might even say, Super.

But again, oil is a natural resource, neutronium is not. Unlike oil, it would have to be created, not mined or drilled. At best (assuming we could create some) it could be used to store energy, like a battery, but not as a source of energy. And there is another problem: it is unstable unless held together by insane amounts of gravity. A small amount of it would just explode as soon as it was created.

I agree that there are technological hurdles to overcome, for sure.

It’s beyond on us on this side of eternity and only after the coming of Jesus might we develop as a society enough that this becomes a possibility.

Just as the saying goes in the nuclear industry, “It’s only fifty years away”.

"only after the coming of Jesus"

Indeed, only after we learn to use such power for good, not evil, as is inevitable in this current age.

The ultimate bomb has already been invented. Climate hysteria.

It is, agreed, science fiction. The science is correct, but the probability is infinitesimal that anything like that will ever happen or be realized.

Speaking of science fiction and infinitesimal probabilities, I just don’t want to give green energy zealots any more arrows for the quiver.

You redecorate your bathroom with fecal matter and expect your wife to clean it up? Not even funny as an attempted joke.

The good news is God will not allow man to destroy the earth. Scripture says he is going to do it himself at the final judgement, the 2nd resurrection we read about in Revelation. Than God will himself burn up the earth, totally destroying it and all sinners and Satan and his angels in a lake of fire..then he will recreate it. and we get to watch.

So?....no worries about this bomb. Now, Revelation 9 says a third of the world will die due to things like storms, wars, pandemics, and probably limited nukes, etc. But for those in Christ? Who cares......we got eternity ahead of us. As Esther said....”If I die, I die”
