| Jan 2, 2020 at 11:55 | comment | added | Starfish Prime | Neutron stars don't decay (unless proton decay turns out to be real...), but once you've taken the neutronium out of that gravity well it'll have the same half life as any other free neutron, about 30 seconds or so. Black hole decay is totally unrelated. After 5 minutes, there will be less than 100 grams left of your 100kg initial block, and the highly energetic decay of all those neutrons will cause it to go foom so you won't have a block for very long. | |
