Everything is pasta.

Scientists know that stellar corpses are densely packed with neutrons — one teaspoon of neutron star material would weigh as much as Mount Everest. No one is sure what happens to neutrons in such conditions. But astronomers suspect that, in a layer below the star’s solid outer crust, pressurized neutrons form clumps that take on unusual shapes, which they often refer to as “nuclear pasta.” The leading models feature phases resembling gnocchi, spaghetti and lasagna.
