a ‘cosmic magnet’ that takes millions of years to develop

I think a Cosmic Midget would be much easier and a lot more fun.

Might even be profitable.

Good luck! because there’s nowhere near enough Rare Earth Metals in the ENTIRE world to replace a fraction of the 2 billion or so passenger automobiles now in use.

And the energy required to manufacture the magnets will be provided by...

“The researchers say that phosphorus, which is present in meteorites, allows the iron and nickel atoms to move faster, enabling them to form the necessary ordered stacking without waiting for millions of years”

So since they admit the phosphorus is also present in the meteorites, why should we assume the process that forms this alloy in meteorites actually takes millions of years?

Rare Earths are not uncommon. But to refine them requires a series of over 20 acid baths that dissolve and precipitate solids.

Only the Chinese are willing to work with those dangerous pollutants at scale.

I’ll make them obsolete when I get my monopole magnets in production... I just need a few billion in tax payer dollars to get going.
