Talking Nice diamond, shame about the price

Quote:
Twinkling in the sky is a diamond star of 10 billion trillion trillion carats, astronomers have discovered.

The cosmic diamond is a chunk of crystallised carbon, 4,000 km across, some 50 light-years from the Earth in the constellation Centaurus.

"You would need a jeweller's loupe the size of the Sun to grade this diamond,"
So how much would it cost at £8,000 per carat?
