The Unwound Hour
Silas worked in a quiet dust.

Are Black Holes the Densest Objects Possible? Exploring the Limits of Density in the Universe
What Does “Density” Mean in Physics? Density is defined as: Density = Mass ÷ Volume An object is denser if it packs more mass into less space. For everyday objects—rocks, metals, planets—this definition works perfectly. But when we enter the realm of neutron stars, black holes, and quantum gravity, density becomes a complicated concept.
