Neutron stars are one of the most extreme and violent things in the universe. Giant atomic nuclei, only a few kilometers in diameter, but as massive as stars. And they owe their existence to ...

中子星是宇宙中最极端、最猛烈的东西之一。巨大的原子核，直径只有几公里，但质量和恒星一样大。他们的存在归功于某种雄伟事物的死亡。[引言音乐]恒星的存在是因为脆弱的平衡。数百万至数万亿吨热等离子体的质量被重力向内拉动，用如此大的力将物质挤压在一...
