Tasmania: 500 million plus bang

Research opportunities at the University of Tasmania on
pulsars

The density of neutron stars is around 1017kg m3 (sic). A teaspoon of this matter would have a mass of 500 million tonnes!

Despite the typo of m to the power 3 rather than minus 3 (by now I'm getting picky), can't fault this entry; even agrees with D. about the volume of a teaspoon. Posted by Jonathan at May 1, 2003 02:16 PM
