1) Where? I'd like to see it. For starters we don't know what most of it is. <br /><br />Now, show me this evidence.<br /><br /><br />2) You are making an unsubstantiated claim. Yes, it's a hypothesis, but you don't try to test it, you don't look at any evidence for, or against it, and give no reasons why it would be true.<br /><br />3) The article does <i>not</i> assert that it is in the center of everything. It does not say it gets blasted into space. It does not say it maintains its properties once there. <br /><br />By saying that the article says that, you are flat out lying.<br /><br />It does say metallic hydrogen can exist under very high pressures. Remove that pressure however, and it no longer remains as metallic hydrogen (which is still hydrogen, just so compressed it has some characteristics of a metal, namely conductivity).<br /><br />the article does say: <blockquote><font class="small">In reply to:</font><hr /><p>Some theorists have speculated that metallic hydrogen produced under laboratory conditions might remain in that state after the enormous pressures required to create it are removed. <i>However, metallization in our experiments occurred for such a brief period of time, and in such a manner, that questions about hydrogen's superconducting properties and retention of metallic form could not be answered.</i><p><hr /></p></p></blockquote><br /><br />Note the italic text, which says they couldn't confirm such properties and the researchers basically don't expect such results considering how everything worked out for them. Afterall, they created the metallic hydrogen, and relieved the pressure, and it reverted almost immediately. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p align="center"><font color="#c0c0c0"><br /></font></p><p align="center"><font color="#999999"><em><font size="1">--------</font></em></font><font color="#999999"><em><font size="1">--------</font></em></font><font color="#999999"><em><font size="1">----</font></em></font><font color="#666699">SaiphMOD@gmail.com </font><font color="#999999"><em><font size="1">-------------------</font></em></font></p><p><font color="#999999"><em><font size="1">"This is my Timey Wimey Detector.
