    We haven't heard of this, and secondly, we can't understand it, because our current technology can't reach the point where we can study it, and there are too many secrets in space, such as its formation, growth, partial destruction and rebirth. Although a lot of progress has been made now, no one can guarantee that there are some secrets in it, but the main secret we are exploring now is that civilizations beyond Earth, black holes, dark matter, the end of the universe or whether there is an end space is the fourth area of activity that humans enter after the continents, oceans and atmosphere of the Earth.

    The vast universe has always been a strange world for human beings, full of infinite charm, no one knows where it came from, will go, what huge secrets are hidden in it, from Copernicus's theory of celestial motion to Newton's theory of gravitation, from the invention of the Chinese telescope to today's spacecraft to visit the target, human beings have been exploring the universe. What is the universe, the ancients clouds, their upper and lower four directions are the universe, and it has been called the universe throughout the ages.

    From the point of view of physics, the upper and lower sides are space, a three-dimensional concept, time, a one-dimensional concept, so, the universe is a four-dimensional space, it can be seen that the definition of the universe by the ancients had a simple view of materialist dialectics, and from a modern point of view, the universe refers to the vast desert space, various celestial bodies and diffuse matter. Because the universe is constantly moving and developing, that is, where human beings are able to reach.

    The matter that human beings do not see but still exist is the universe. The more people reveal the mysteries of the universe, the more unfathomable the universe becomes, and the process of human understanding of the universe begins with the Earth, which is just an ordinary member of the solar system, revolving around the sun day and night with eight other planets, plus moons, sinks, asteroids and meteors that make up the solar system, from the solar system to the Milky Way, the Milky Way contains more than 100 billion stars and occupies a space diameter of 100,000 light years.

    As incredible as it sounds, diamond rain does exist in the universe, but it only falls on Saturn. This is due to the fact that Saturn's material structure is very different from that of Earth.

    Exist. Because both Saturn and Jupiter in the solar system rain diamonds, which are converted from gaseous elements in the atmosphere.

  6. Anonymous users2024-02-06

    The so-called diamond rain is actually the decomposition of some gas elements into carbon at high temperatures, forming diamonds.

  7. Anonymous users2024-02-05

    It definitely exists. Because of the known planets, there are already 2 planets made up of 3 diamonds. So if the universe is so big, there will definitely be planets that rain diamonds.

    Saturn and Jupiter rain diamonds, a process that produces about 1,000 tons of diamonds, some of which can be as large as one centimeter in diameter. However, the cores of Saturn and Jupiter are too hot, and when the "diamonds" fall, they melt into liquid.

    Kevin Baines of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, a member of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and Mona Delitsky of California Specialty Engineering, the agency that supports engineering and science programs, presented on the new research at a meeting of the American Astronomical Society.

    Why does it rain diamonds].

    Both Saturn and Jupiter contain methane in their atmospheres. Strong lightning can turn methane into carbon in the form of coal ash, which solidifies into graphite during the process of sedimentation, and then turns into diamonds under the action of high temperature and pressure.

    Saturn and Jupiter are both gas giants with a radius about 10 times that of Earth. Jupiter is about 10,000 miles (140,000 kilometers) in diameter and Saturn is about 10,000 miles (120,000 kilometers) in diameter. It is uncertain whether they have a solid core, but it is possible that they all have a small rock core.

    As far as is known, the main known component of both planets is hydrogen. Although it is not known how thick Jupiter's or Saturn's atmosphere is, it is at least tens of thousands of miles. In comparison, the Earth's atmosphere is only about 62 miles (100 kilometers).

    The diamond rain on Jupiter and Saturn begins in the upper atmosphere. The lightning strikes through methane, turning it into carbon black (carbon), and as the carbon black drops and the air pressure increases, it turns into graphite again. After another 4,000 miles of descent, the pressure increased to the point that the graphite turned into diamond.

    Diamonds continue to descend for about 20,000 miles (no one knows how deep Saturn's or Jupiter's nuclei are)—which is almost three times the diameter of the Earth—all the way to their nuclei. At this point, the pressure and temperature may be so high that the diamond becomes an ocean of liquid carbon.

    Diamond is what we often call diamond, it is a mineral composed of carbon elements, and the arrangement of the elements must be appropriate to become diamonds, carbon elements can form diamonds (diamonds) at high pressure and high temperature.

    Jupiter is a huge liquid planet with Jupiter's atmosphere in its outermost layer. As the depth increases, hydrogen gradually transitions to a liquid state. At a distance of 10,000 kilometers from the top of Jupiter's atmospheric clouds, there is high temperature and high pressure, and liquid hydrogen becomes liquid metallic hydrogen at high pressure and high temperature.

    If there is carbon in the atmosphere of Jupiter or Saturn, it should form a solid state of diamond due to high temperature and high pressure, which is a physical form, but the temperature of Saturn and Jupiter is very high, and in high temperature, diamond will be directly vaporized, and the body cannot exist.

    Rare is precious, if something is particularly easy to appear or obtain, it is not valuable, the reason why diamonds are valuable on the earth is because it is difficult to obtain, there should be very few places in the earth's nature with high temperature and high pressure, and the natural formation of diamond is more precious. If diamonds rain on Jupiter, they are not much rare, and diamonds are worthless for astronautics.

    Yes; Saturn and Jupiter are both gas planets, and new atmospheric data shows that both planets are full of sparkling crystalline carbon.

    Scientists explain that the atmospheres of Saturn and Jupiter contain methane, and strong lightning turns methane into carbon in the form of coal ash, which solidifies into graphite in the process of sedimentation, and then turns into diamonds under the action of high temperature and pressure. Scientists estimate that Saturn produces about 1,000 tons of diamonds every year through such a process, which is relatively large, and the diameter may reach one centimeter, making a big diamond ring is more than enough, but then again, the core temperature of Saturn and Jupiter is too high, and after the diamond goes down, it will be melted into liquid, and the phrase "diamond is eternal" does not apply to Saturn and Jupiter, but it is true in Uranus and Neptune, the atmosphere of those two planets has a higher methane content, and the temperature of the core is relatively low, and it is impossible to melt diamonds.

    In the past, astronomers thought that only Uranus and Neptune could produce diamonds, and that about 15 percent of the atmosphere of Uranus and Neptune was methane, and that neither Jupiter nor Saturn had more than 10 percent methane.

    Diamonds are a rare resource on Earth, found in small rock formations and difficult to mine. Therefore, it has also become a very valuable item on the earth, because many people believe that eternal love is as indestructible as a diamond, so diamonds have always been equated with love. Is there any way to make a rain of diamonds in the sky?

    The original form of diamond is known as diamond, which is an allotrope of the mineral graphite composed of the element carbon. Until 2009, diamond was known as the world's hardest substance, until 2009, when two substances that surpassed diamonds, hexagonal diamond and hexagonal carbon, appeared, which had an indentation strength of 18% and 58% higher than diamond, respectively.

    Today's diamond, although it is no longer the world's first, but its ** has not been greatly affected and is still very expensive. A large part of this is due to the fact that diamonds are attractive on Earth, and they are often hidden in extremely harsh environments, making them extremely difficult to mine. But for the other planets in the universe, diamonds are not a rarity.

    Saturn, for example, often rains diamonds, because Saturn has a relatively dense atmosphere and a certain amount of methane in the atmosphere. Under the action of lightning, methane becomes carbon black, which then falls into the planet, and as the atmospheric pressure and temperature rise, the carbon black is converted into graphite.

    And when the atmospheric pressure and temperature rise higher, graphite becomes diamonds, and these diamonds drift down like rain, forming a rain of diamonds. Through such a process, Saturn produces about 1,000 tons of diamonds per year. In addition to Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune are also equipped to form diamond showers.

    And since we move the recipe for diamond rain to Earth, it may not be good news for us. Because diamond rain can cause large-scale destruction and disaster, although the diameter of the falling diamond is not too large, due to the factors of high speed and jagged edges, it must be as destructive as a baseball bat swung with full force.

    Of course, you don't have to worry, because we won't be injured by diamonds falling from the sky, and we don't need to do any defensive work. Because the methane content of the Earth's atmosphere is not as high as that of Jupiter, it produces only about one thousandth of the number of diamonds produced by Saturn, and Saturn's atmospheric pressure is 10 million times that of Earth. So to turn methane into diamonds, we need to increase the Earth's atmospheric pressure.

    The composition of diamonds is carbon, which is generated under high temperature and high pressure conditions, and there is no shortage of natural planets composed of diamonds in the universe. But this is a devastating blow to the earth, because diamonds cannot be burned by the atmosphere due to high temperatures, and the consequences are as disastrous as meteorite rains.

  13. Anonymous users2024-01-30

    There is no way to scientifically rain diamonds, because the formation of diamonds can only be formed under high temperature and high pressure, and the sky cannot meet them, and even if they do, it is just like hail.

    For outer space, it is still an unsolved mystery.

    The best answer now is that there are no other vital signs, for the current world's scientific and technological development, if you encounter danger, you are not yet able to resist external dangers, so this question is still left to scientists, let's just live our own lives.

    Improving life and technology is considering whether there are alien creatures.

    It's hard to find the right perfect answer to this question, and many countries around the world have their own.

    UFO associations, each of them can come up with a lot of evidence to prove their point of view, but no person or group can come up with clear evidence to prove the existence of UFOs.

    ufo(an

    unidentified

    flying

    object) is only a UFO, that is, an unknown object that appears in the sky, can be called a UFOThe UFO that people generally refer to is only a flying saucer, that is, a so-called "alien" to visit the earth's aircraft. And now there is still a mystery about whether there are extraterrestrial creatures in the world, and even if they do, the degree of scientific development of them is unknown, and they may not have enough ability to come to Earth.

    I used to be a UFO fanatic, and I still collect every issue of UFO Quest magazine, but I hope the landlord will pay attention to these things, and their content is very untrustworthy.

    This question cannot be answered if you want to discuss it, although there are many rumors and reports, but no one can really prove the existence of UFOs.

    Exist. First of all, Earth is not the only planet with living things.

    The scope of the universe is quite large, and life can be created on a small Earth, and this possibility also exists on other planets. The idea that only the earth has life in the entire universe is unacceptable.

    Secondly, UFO is short for Unidentified Flying Object, just as earthlings have released several probes into space that indicate Earth's civilization, creatures from other planets may have done this.

    kind of thing. After all, even if they can't too.

    Empty travel, too.

    The probe can be released.

    Tester's. It doesn't have to be a living thing on a UFO.

    Thirdly, as for UFOs that appear on Earth, they may be true, but most of them are impossible. Because the universe is too big, what are the chances that we will encounter UFOs from other planets?
