Other groups, notably scientists from Sandia National Laboratories, successfully melted diamond years ago, but they were unable to measure the pressure and temperature at which the diamond melted.

Huh? "Scientist" were unable to give us precise temps and pressures? How is this possible?

I bet they also believe in global warming.

Play fair - just because global warming is BS doesn't mean all scientists are BS-ers.

They are talking 11 million atmospheres and 50,000 degrees (C or F?).

My tire guage and outside temperature guage don't hold up under these conditions.

But it looks as if the scientists here could use some proxies and come up with 'value added' temperatures and pressures.

It worked for Jones.
