Gold
This stuff fascinates me: Scientist recently witnessed the visual evidence of two neutron stars colliding that not only generated a detectable gravitational wave on the LIGO system, confirming Einstein's theory, but it also confirmed a long held theory that this kind of collision generates huge amounts of gold and platinum to be sprewed outward into the universe, some arriving on Earth. The scientist have determined that this single collision generated enough gold and platinum that their weight exceeds that of planet Earth by a factor of 10. Who's up for another interplanetary gold rush? |

Who's up for another interplanetary gold rush? Now you are digging up 130 million year old news ;-) You just have to be patient, in a few billion years that gold will come here. |
