Neutron Stars: The Most Extreme Objects in the Universe
Season 7
Episode 29
We’ve traveled to lots of weird places on this show - from the interiors of black holes to the time before the big bang. But today, we take a journey to what has got to be the weirdest place in the modern universe - a place where matter exists in states you’ve never heard of. We take a journey to the center of the neutron star.
