Project Part #9. Ship via the Space Elevator to complete phases of Project Assembly.
Power Usage: 500-1500 MW (1000 MW average).

Nuclear Pasta is extremely dense degenerate matter, formed when extreme pressure forces protons and electrons together into neutrons. It is theorized to exist naturally within the crust of neutron stars.
