Crystallization of the material of a white dwarf of this type is thought to result in a body-centered cubic lattice of carbon and/or oxygen nuclei, which are surrounded by a Fermi sea of electrons.
That, um, isn't *quite* the same thing as diamond. Diamonds aren't, last I checked, composed of degenerate matter. And Pravda.ru is Russian for Weekly World News -- all tabloid, all the time. So this thread is kinda like posting pictures of Bat Boy as IOTD :p |

We will find out when the aliens come back to get us in December of 2011. Wonder what they'll feed us?
