[QUOTE="Quip, post: 1932467, member: 3816"] Well I usually like to know a few basics of whatever I'm talking about. At least make an attempt for reasearch. In this case, I was thinking of neutronium as just superdense matter, but appearantly its more like plasma thats not packed quite as tightly as a black hole. I still like the idea of an odd chunk of heavy material floating around with a moon, with about the mass of a gas giant. Perhaps, the molten iron core of a large planet that was ejected when the planet was mostly obliterated by some impact. It then managed to cool off without attracting more material (seperated from the majority of the other debris) or collapsing into a regular shape (it was already beggining to cool), resulting in a massive porus irregular iron shape. Fast foward millions of years later, this metal mass has been pulled into orbit around a forming star system. It manages to attract some amount of light material but only enough to give it a liquid/gas core, that isn't even half thick enough to cover the iron protrusions of its frame. It also catches a moon, which would have eventually been a planet itself were it not for the large, ferrous visitor. This moon solidifies, matures, and eventually produces life, intelligence, and a really interesting view. There, is that somewhat better astrophysics? Or at least plausible science fiction? :) [/QUOTE]
