Some cosmic hacking going on here, I tell you. The Man Upstairs is a Minecraft fan. Yes, God has installed a mod on the universe that produces whole diamond planets.

Of course no one has a clue what it really looks like.

Actually, astronomers have in fact discovered a planet hurtling around a neutron star about 4000 light years from us that is believed to be made almost entirely out of crystalline carbon. Or, in other words, diamond. It's estimated to be at least as heavy as Jupiter but twenty times as dense. It makes a complete orbit around its stellar companion at a blistering pace of every two hours and ten minutes. It is speculated to be a once-massive star that lost its outer layer to the neutron star that it orbits.

That or Mr. Almighty is stashing his hacked loot around a fucking pulsar. N00b.
