how are diamonds in space made?

941 views

I’m not really sure how diamonds are made on earth, either. I know it’s something to do with the pressure of the earth compressing them over a long long period of time, but by that rough logic, how could they be formed in space? For example i read that It LITERALLY rains diamonds on Saturn and Jupiter, and there’s been evidence of small meteors crashing into earth and leaving discards of diamonds everywhere, from space.

All you need to make a diamond is heat, carbon, and pressure. Diamonds are only valuable to humans because we think they are, when in reality they’re just like every other thing in the universe.
