totally wrong. these elements are not formed in the heart of these stars. And also, they are not always formed when a Star dies. A Supernova doesnt mean certain death, because the star might continue its life as a neutron star. Furthermore, these heavy elements are not only formed in supernovae, but also in the outer layers of lighter stars that are in their giant-phase.

@Raptor828 You are completely wrong. Elements more massive than iron *must* be formed during the "death" of a very massive star or as a result of beta radiation within a very massive star. Also, neutron stars are no longer "alive". They are just as dead as a white dwarf. Furthermore, thermonuclear fusion can only occur in the core of a star. That means your nonsense (about heavy elements forming in the outer layers) is completely ignorant.
@Raptor828
5 жыл бұрын
@GDI well it depends what you define as death of course. Since Neutron Stars and White Dwarfs still have radiation, they are "alive", just in a different form than before. There are 2 ways to get heavier elements than iron: First, the r-process, where these atoms are created by decay, not fusion. The exact location within a star where this happens is not yet known, but its not at the core, because the core at that time is already in a degenerate state. Second, the s-process, which happens in red giants, where these elements are also synthesized by decay, not fusion. So you are the one talking nonsense here...
@Monochromicornicopia
5 жыл бұрын
@Raptor828 The entire scientific community defines a star to be "alive" while it is undergoing thermonuclear fusion (converting less massive elements into more massive elements). The exact location within a star where this happens is not a hotly debated topic. The entire scientific community knows it occurs within the core, because we know the conditions required for fusion only exist in the core. Your quote: _"elements are also synthesized by decay, not fusion"_ - Not only have I already mentioned beta decay/capture, but this would also occur within the core of the star or during a supernova.

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. Thor in Thor 1: “Your ancestors called it magic, but you call it science. I come from a land where they are one and the same.” After all, magic is just science that we do not understand yet, any magic that is real, is not magic but science. If you refer to the "multiple upon multiple of occasions" as Dr. Strange, watch the movie again and again until you understand what the "magic" actually is, because it is in fact not magic. :) And I was refering to Thor's hammer and the spell on it, just because we don't understand, does not mean that it is beyond. What they could refer to as magic, could just be advanced technology beyond them. Again, I want you to really dig into the meanings of magic and science and how they stand to each other.

As speculated by other science Geeks, it's believed Thor's hammer contains a hence undiscovered particle called a graviton. This is what allows it's mass to change at will. For instance, its mass can be very small and light as Thor spins the hammer. Then the mass can become absolutely huge and heavy and it will propel Thor through the air. It's only through Thor's immense strength and durability that the hammer does not rip his arm off as he goes flying through the air. Neat stuff.

If you mean gravitonium (the element that creates graviton in AOS) then yes it could well be a factor. It wouldn't be the most ridiculous theory. Maybe the dying star is needed to melt the ingots as shown in infinity war with stormbreaker but it could also expel some very small quantities of gravitonium from within the star which would then be infused/contained within the hammer? if you wanna go down the more realistic road rather than "it's magic bro"

The problem with the idea of Mjolnir being Neutronium (Neutron Star Matter. Basically, all the protons, and electrons fused into Neutrons, so it's a massive nucleus) is in The Avengers "Hulk couldn't lif it." In the hanger of the Helicarrier. I don't think it's Mass, because suddenly taking the extra mass of 18 thousand billion tons when he set it down (And therefore somehow it reverted to it's normal Weight) then the Helicarrier engines would probably have to work a bit harder. Remember, this is the scene where 1 of the engines is being restarted by Stark, and if they lost another, they would be flying like a cartoon Anvil? (How do you think they get up there in the first place?) Well, that's when he set down the hammer, Hulk couldn't lift, and added an extra 18,000,000,000 tons of mass to the ship that could barely stay in the air as it is.

It can be seen flying around in space by itself in the movies. Given the engine strength required for this kind of flight, it would be super easy for the hammer to stay stationary if it wanted to, no matter how much you jank at it. The engines is also why it's such a powerful weapon; it assists with the swings.

It's not that Thor's hammer is heavy. I mean, it's a big dense chunk of metal, it's got some good heft, but the reason it can't be lifted is because the hammer chooses not to be lifted. It anchors itself in its location in reality via magic. Also, formed IN a dying star, not OF a dying star. As in, the forge is located in one so it can use the star's heat to make cool things like magical hammers.

He was on the right track. Iron and nickle are the elements at the boundary between fission and fusion. This is when the stars fuel gets used up.

All elements heavier than helium are made in the core of a star. All of them

@Jason Young Obviously the heaviest elements known to man have been created in a laboratory, however the naturally occurring elements can only be created by stars.

@RADDeathTRAP That's the dumbest thing I've read since visiting flat earth comment section. If you knew anything about chemistry, you would know there can't be elements "between" elements on the periodic table.

The dying star is the fuel that powers the star forge. The Hammer is not made of the stat itself. It's made of Uru, a rare metal.

Thor's was not able to be lifted by anyone unworthy. This is a function of its enchantment.

In myth, it is made out of iron. It’s made in a furnace by a pair of dwarves/dark elves in svartalfheim, and the handle is actually supposed to be much longer but one of the dwarves made a mistake in its production.

I know Tyson doesn't like to be wrong, but what makes the hammer difficult to pick up isn't the actual hammer's weight. It's the magic that prevents those unworthy of using it to pick it up. The guy he quoted was correct.

As a comic book nerd i know marvel put out a card set and it states that mjolnir weighs 42.3 lbs

It weights about 15 pounds. It's made of Uru. Uru is superlight, even more than vibranium and has psionic/magic abilities in on itself.

Yes but it was forged there but thats just the metal not the curse on it. Same as thanus gloves. The material is just strong enough to sustain the power. Its only those worthy it and pure. Thats why vision could lift it.

It doesn't matter how much it weights it's if your worthy to weild it. It's not about strength...

Reading the comments section I see much in the way of debate. Let me say this... Marvel comics are clueless about Norse Myth. Any discussion about the hammer outside the source material is moot. That said, I like how Tyson makes science both interesting and fun. I'd like to see his explanation on the binding of Fenris.
