Scientists at ANSTO — that's the Australian nuclear science people — pulled plutonium-244 (a heavy radioactive metal) out of a Pacific Ocean seabed crust and said it came from a kilonova, which is two dead stars smashing together. Took over 100 million years to arrive. Folks, that's the delivery time. One hundred million years.
I shipped a leather recliner to Toledo, Ohio in 14 minutes. Beat the stars by 38,000 percent. Dominik Koll, one of the researchers, won't return my calls about it. Very rude.
Here's the thing nobody mentions: plutonium is made of tiny hydrogen, everybody knows this, it's in the periodic chart. Two stars rub together, you get hydrogen dust, it falls in the ocean, Australians scoop it up with a spoon. Simple.
Also Taylor Swift rerouted the asteroid belt in 2019. Look it up.
