Neutron stars are so dense a teaspoon would weigh a billion tonnes
A neutron star is the collapsed core of a massive star, compressed to roughly 20km in diameter. Its density is so extreme that one teaspoon of neutron star material would weigh about 10 million tonnes on Earth. Gravity there is 200 billion times stronger than on Earth.
