      Yes, our sun has liquid metallic hydrogen. I suspect that the planet, Jupiter, has liquid metallic hydrogen as well. With the workability of the Electric universe, I see Jupiter as a kind of star. I see blurring of the traditional definition of a star or a planet.

    So we talked about the mixture made with liquid methane and water under high pressure, but when the pressure is released, does the mixture still hold or does it separate again?

    Yay now I can completely contradict what I have learnt about metals and insulators during school this year and mention this in my exams and 'complain about getting the answer wrong' by showing them proof with this video :D
    - And no I wouldn't do this as I don't fail my exams

    Serious questions- what happens to the compounds formed under intense pressure after the pressure is removed? Do the 'weird' characteristics disappear? Do the oil & water separate? Is there a threshold? Is that threshold meaningful in any way?

    Was expecting something about strange quarks because you said "extreme" pressure.
