[00:00:00]Get within 1,000 km of a magnetar and it starts pulling the iron out of your blood while you're still alive.

[00:00:06]Magnetars [music] are neutron stars with magnetic fields a trillion times stronger than Earth's. Strong enough to stretch your atoms. When a magnetar's [music] crust cracks, a star quake, it releases more energy than the sun produces in 100,000 years. One burst pointed at Earth could sterilize the planet. We've only found 30 magnetars, but they're out there waiting.
