So I am sitting here brain storming physics and cosmic stuff some speculative and some real. Some how I got thinking about Quark Stars and was like wait a second.
IF quark stars exist, has anyone noticed how similar quark matter or particles behave once in contact with matter is eerily similar to how Prions work and leading to chronic wasting disease or in humans Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. I mean there are obviously differences in scale, specific operation and energy levels.

God now I am imagining quark disease or more like either spontaneous vaporization, or spontaneous rapid change into quark matter. And obliterating everything, the first human to have quark disease will be the last probably considering quark matter properties, forces and energies.

Just thought it was interesting and weird. Meanwhile if you didn't read this and scrolled to the bottom. Enjoy the picture of the Universe, supposedly from DALL-E :P
