RIAU24.COM – Gold is something that humans have fought for and hunted for centuries. It is known that the gold we see comes from the mine.
But on a cosmic scale, it forms when massive stars collide.
The formation of the sought-after precious metal is as difficult as the historical efforts to possess it.
Gold, and other metals heavier than iron are formed in space when two neutron stars collide.
The collision of these extremely dense dead stars causes ripples in the fabric of space-time.
These ripples are called gravitational waves. These collisions also cause bursts of high-energy gamma rays and flashes of light (kilonova) that can be detected across long distances in space.
