Universe: Endless diamond warehouse

By spectral analysis, scientists have found countless diamonds in the universe.

Diamonds are beautiful, so people often liken stars like diamonds, and in the universe there are countless sparkling diamonds. That is just a clever way of speaking. But literally speaking, the universe is a real diamond store.

The explosions in the universe produced a lot of hydrogen, accounting for 99%. To date, most forms of matter exist outside the Universe cylinders are still different forms of hydrogen atoms. Hydro is the main material, combining small amounts of helium and other heavy elements to form stars.

Bright stars have extremely high temperatures, like a furnace. The fusion reaction in which to melt hydrogen and produce other elements, such as helium, is formed from the combination of two molten hydrogen atoms.

At the end of the life cycle, the stars burned brightly one last time before fading. It then burned helium atoms to form heavier elements and released them into space. In which there is a familiar form of carbon element still exists on the earth: diamond.

Through observing the stars and surrounding objects, analyzing their spectra, scientists have recognized specific spectral lines, thereby confirming that diamonds exist in the universe, especially especially in the area around the burning stars.
