Planets and Diamonds

Astronomers have found a new planet! 4,000 light years away. Made out of what you may ask? Diamonds! So they say. They think it is made of some type of crystalline because it is so dense. Part of the planet must be made of diamonds. They alson think there is some oxygen is also there. Would be pretty nice to live on a planet made of diamonds. HA!:)...what are you thoughts?http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/08/25/us-planet-diamond-idUSTRE77O69A20110825

  • That would be one heck of an engagement ring that's what I think(;
  • okay i am SOOOOOOOO going there and taking all thee diamonds :)   BUt that ia really crazy that, that happened... i wonder who found that!! whoever it is, they are SMART!!!
  • I researched this topic for science and it was very interesting. Although from what i read, i don't think i want to go to the diamond planet because it is spinning so fast.
  • You mean that is true?! Nega wrote a post about that, but I thought it was false!! Wow, that's crazy!!
  • Very cool!
  • That's really cool, but it's wierd that it's made of diamonds. I definitly wouldn't want to live there though it's too far away.
  • I would not want to live there. Mostly because 4,000 light years is just too long of a road trip. And what the heck am I gonna do when I get there? Hey! Look at me! I got a bunch of diamonds and have nothing to do with them! whoo...
  • A lot of people would probably just go there to get diamonds to bring them back to Earth and sell them for a lot of money, so they can have cash.
    • If a lot of people do go to the planet if they could even get there, diamonds probably wouldn't be worth as much because their would be an over abundance of them.
  • ok I would love to live there but thinking of how much people go nuts over stuff like dimonds, gold, and oil I would also be kindov scared after so many people get there.
