Take in the brief but informative video on YouTube.
At the 4:35 mark, while discussing the solid crust of the neutron star, diving down to the base of the iron crust, we are told that the neutrons in the atoms begin to merge. They form long chains or sheets like spaghetti and lasagna. Nuclear pasta! It can form lumps, form into very dense but small mountains.
Lumpy nuclear pasta in outer space. Ha!
