This is a really interesting article about space exploration and theoretics.

Oceans of liquid diamond, filled with solid diamond icebergs, could be floating on Neptune and Uranus, according to a recent article in the journal Nature Physics.

The surprising revelation gives scientists a new understanding about diamonds and some of the most distant planets in our solar system.

"Diamond is a relatively common material on Earth, but its melting point has never been measured," said Eggert. "You can't just raise the temperature and have it melt, you have to also go to high pressures, which makes it very difficult to measure the temperature."

Take a look!

I knew companies sponsored events, sports etc.

I wasn't aware they sponsored demolition, but...

IRVING – Texas Stadium will come down this spring in a "Cheddar Explosion."

That's the name that Kraft Foods has given to its promotional campaign for the implosion of the iconic structure.
