If you had a standard Vegas die made from neutron degenerate matter it would mass the same as a 3 km sphere of rock. 3.36x10^12 kg.
Without a stellar mass to keep it compressed to degeneracy, it's going to explosively expand, though.
There's a couple of small moons around Jupiter that are this size. Lots of asteroids too.
I had to relearn how to calculate the fucking density from the numbers that physicists use back into simple shit like engineers use.
Prolly a web page that gives the simple 4.9x10^17 kg/m3 answer I figured out without needing to get as drunk as I did to kill knowing that math in order to retrieve it.
Oh, and don't fuck with me! I can do this math when I can't fucking stand!
This all comes from someone who's Mr Trivia at our local watering hole asking how much a die's worth of neutronium weighs.
Notice I called it neutron degenerate matter? We don't use nuetronium to describe it any more!
