Several years ago, during the debate on "Cold Fusion", Sheldon Glashow put forward a theory that debris from neutron stars could be shot into space and those debris could have thousands, perhaps millions of neutrons, and perhaps one proton that was attached to it in a molecule of Super Heavy Hydrogen. It was supposed that two Super Heavy Hydrogen would come together to form Super Heavy water and that water would fall into Earth and ultimately settle in the deep ocean trenches. Glashow had proposed that the water could be obtained from the ocean and seperated using gradations of Chlorofluorocarbons to isolate the variety of heavy and super heavy water. He later retracted that idea. It may have some truth to it in the Comet 3I/Atlas. The comet was measured to have a mass of 33 billion tons and if it were all neutrons, it would have a nucleus the size of a bottle of maple syrup, or about 495 cubic centimeters. If all of the Neutrons simultaneously decayed into protons the energy produced would be many billions of Megatons of TNT. Let's suppose instead of pure Neutrons, that the comet has already turned largely into Super Heavy water ice. Let's suppose Glashow was right and as the Super Heavy water ice enters a gravitational field, the "twin paradox" creates a condition in which the neutrons in the Super Heavy Hydrogen Nuclei can no longer stay in the superposition that they were in when they were created in the Neurton Star, and they break up and in some instances perform "cold fusion". This cold fusion could result in the formation of Nickel-56 and Nickel-60, without the Iron typically found form Super Novas, as the huge pressure is not available. Another interesting conjecture is that in a gravitational field the leading edge of such a comet and the trailing edge would come out of superposition first due to the "gravitational Twin Paradox", and that would explain why both ends of the comet are active. More interesting is the extreme sensitivity that "Neutron superposition" has to Gravity. Even the smallest gravitational wave or pull would cause some of the Neutrons to convert to Protons and emit extreme amounts of energy and antinuetrinos. The Comet would appear to be navigating even the smallest of Gravitational fields, as the Twin Paradox would create vector thrusts, and of course radio waves.
