Hey Guys!!! For The Woman Who Has Everything.  | |  so, i was just watching "Modern Marvels" on The History Channel...........yeah, i'm a $lut for science and all things that learn my brain.
anyways the show was all about the element carbon.
they talked about carbon fiber race cars, carbon based life(US!!!) and got around to discussing diamonds which are actually carbon which has been compressed under intense pressure for billions of years, until it becomes crystallized carbon or diamonds.
well it turns out scientists have discovered a white dwarf star 17 light years from Earth which is made out of crystallized carbon.
so this star, named BPM37093, is actually a GIGANTIC DIAMOND as big as.........well, as big as a star.
it's estimated carat weight is 10^33 or 10 billion trillion trillion carats.

anyway...........that's all............i just found it kind of interesting.
