Today's Topic: 🌟Star Collision Creates Space Gold!🌟
TL; DW (Too Long; Didn’t Watch)
- In August 2017, an explosion was spotted by scientists in a previously obscure galaxy called NGC 4993.
- It made gold!
- Two neutron (very dense) stars collided causing tiny ripples in the fabric of space.
- The collision propelled debris into space at 300 million kilometers per hour.
- Scientists estimate it created at least as much gold as the mass of the Earth.
- That is 6 billion trillion (6,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) TONS of gold.
- In all of known civilization, only 186,000 tons of gold have been extracted.
- Scientists assume this kind of collision only happens once every 10,000 years in the Milky Way Galaxy.
- At least 10,000 Earths worth of debris containing precious metals resulted from this collision, only one “Earth” being gold.

I've been trying to figure out what's been missing the last few weeks. @carrieallen, of course.
Absolutely I wanna see more of you, but will @chrisroberts mind?
Trust me, I'm a doctor.
Naw, Chris prefers you do. 😎
PPS: When do we get the gold?
Trust me, I'm a doctor.
I only kinda do math... but based on the given info
Answer: I got nothin'!
But I bet SOMEONE out there could figure it out... I probably could too, but haven't had any coffee yet...😏
This video deserves a gold star! Haha, see what I did there, gold star.
The luminosity of your video was great. You must have some good lights.
You did it! You win! But...
It's a secret... the others wouldn't understand.
Winky-smiley, Carrie. Winky-smiley.
Oh by the bye, I've let slip more secrets about me recently, 'cept one of them isn't.

Nice share. It's interest @carrieallen ◕ ‿ ◕✿
Wow, give me just a little bitty sliver of that Gold, please :)
It's en route. But your guess is as good as mine as to when it will arrive. :D
