au contraire, enormous (in terms of mass not volume) but dying Neutron stars are so compressed under their own gravity, some are barely 12 to 25 kilometers in diameter of highly condensed Iron and other stable atomic arrangements, and may be spinning 40,000 times per minute on their own axis. Sometimes, there are two of those in a binary system, orbiting each other, on a collision course for a Kilonova, spraying out bazillion tonnes of star and planet making substances across a Galaxy.
A blackhole gulping Neutron Stars down would make for an interesting event!
