A new form of carbon known as a “super-diamond” may exist in outer space and be harder than any material found on Earth.

This material was discovered by the fastest supercomputer in the world after it modeled the evolution of billions of carbon atoms put under immense pressure. Researchers believe the extreme conditions on distant worlds could naturally give rise to super-diamonds and other unique carbon structures.

Such materials, if synthesized on Earth, could revolutionize various industries, though the process remains challenging. Scientists are now seeing if they can create these “super-diamonds” in the lab.
