[QUOTE="Rigsby, post: 1248113, member: 7361"] Sure, if you boiled every single person who ever lived on planet earth down to just their sub atomic particles and took out the space, you could fit them all in to a sugar cube that you put at the end of your finger tip. You wouldn't be able to hold it though because it would be neutron star density 'heavy'. Let's not get in to concepts of 'weight' or 'mass' as well as they aren't quite the same thing. You get the picture. Like the Flaming Lips song: A spoonful weighs a ton. Check out: [URL]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degenerate_energy_levels[/URL] Electron Degeneracy Pressure is when this very thing happens to a Star and it boils it down to a White Dwarf. Even though it is relatively small, it is also relatively massive. When the next state of Quantum Degeneracy takes hold (Neutron Degeneracy) you get a Neutron Star. Something about 3 times the mass of our sun is boiled down to an area the size of London. Don't forget you can actually fit a coupla million Earths in to Sol. Many people don't realize how 'massive' it is (or rather voluminous). When things get really 'heavy' they become black holes. A black hole can be the size of a golf ball btw, but let's not go there now. The reason the Electron Degeneracy pressure results in White Dwarfs and not Neutron Stars is because there has been so much vacuum pushed out. Electrons orbit the nucleus of an atom which contains the neutron. They are relatively far away and not so energy packed. It's easier to condense. If you took an atom you could put a pea in the centre of a football field and the outer edges of the game of play would be where the electrons were. The neutrons would be in the centre line kick off point/circle along with the Protons*. Very rough visualisation. Don't shoot me. Condensing an already energy packed and kicking back neutron is a whole other ball game. Eh eh. There are things denser than Neutron stars again, but... Once you get to about over 3 solar masses, then black holes start to be formed. As for vacuums, well even they aren't vacuums. You get particles popping up out of nowhere, literally. Then they annihilate each other with their anti-matter particles. It is not possible to have a 100 percent vacuum. Matter literally does just appear out of nowhere then disappear just as quickly again. In the Heart Sutra Buddhists declare: Form is emptiness and emptiness is form. Christians declare: As above, so below. See quantum vacuum states. [i]According to present-day understanding of what is called the vacuum state or the quantum vacuum, it is "by no means a simple empty space".[1][2] According to quantum mechanics, the vacuum state is not truly empty but instead contains fleeting electromagnetic waves and particles that pop into and out of existence[/i] [URL]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_state[/URL] *I tried to tell them all this in Junior School, but only got a clip around the ear for being disruptive. :@ [/QUOTE]
