I put in an order for some gold. Should be here in a couple billion years or so.

If I ever decide to adopt a new screen name, I think "Kilonova" would be it.

Recently I watched a youtube on the creation of the elements and IIRC he claimed that the heaviest elements (the ones in the special section that gets displayed under the main periodic table) were mostly made when two neutron stars collide. Apparently supernovas did not have the capability.

Was he correct?

Remember that not using plastic bags and collecting aluminum cans will save the earth. Then you read this and we are less then a speck in the universe. Heck one volcano blowing it’s top shows we are not in charge.

Single Kilonova Produced 1,000x the Mass of the Earth in Very Heavy Elements

....Its proximity in a neighboring galaxy only 1 billion light years away gave scientists the opportunity to study the properties of the merger in unprecedented detail.

Only a billion light years away. Like a walk in the park!

I figure these neutron star mergers toss out a bunch of dense material which busts up like popcorn with nothing holding the clumps together anymore. It would be a good place to see if any elements actually exist in the fabled island of Stability for trans Uranium elements.
