What would happen if a neutron star collided with earth?
It is extremely unlikely that a neutron star (or any star or planet) will collide with the Earth, so this is not something that you need to worry about, however, if a neutron star were to collide with the Earth, the Earth would be captured by the intense gravitational field of the neutron star, and would be absorbed by the star. Under sufficient pressure, electrons and protons will merge to form neutrons, and so the atomic matter of which the Earth is composed can be converted into pure neutrons.
