Diamond Planet Discovered In Ophiuchus/Serpens

[Tenet Nosce]

Superbubble is the astronomical term used to describe a cavity hundreds of light years across filled with 106 K gas blown into the interstellar medium by multiple supernovae and stellar winds. The solar system lies near the center of an old superbubble, known as the Local Bubble, whose boundaries can be traced by a sudden rise in dust extinction of stars at distances greater than a few hundred light years.

What?! We just "happen" to be in the center of an old one?! It is a cosmic vesica piscis!

This conjured a few questions/ideas. What if this giant diamond the size of Jupiter (I have a hard time thinking of it as a "planet" since its so unique), is the dead core of the previous galaxy that seeded the milky-way galaxy? If its a giant crystal, couldn't it be a giant data crystal with the arkashic record of the previous galaxy?

That's an interesting idea! Although this particular planet is in the direction of the galactic center, it is not in the actual center. There is, however a very bright radio source known as Sagittarius A* is very near to the center, if not in the center itself. Turns out this radio source is about 26,000 light years away from us- really close to the period of the Great Year- so one of those "weird coincidences" I guess.
