How Space Tech Is Changing Life on Earth: 2020 Edition

Stars can freeze under certain conditions, forming white dwarfs and neutron stars. White dwarfs crystallize into structures similar to diamonds, while neutron stars have solid crusts made of iron. Research and simulations have provided evidence of these phenomena, including the release of latent heat and star quakes.

Explain the concept of latent heat and its relevance to white dwarfs.
