“Pauli Exclusion Principle: Why You Don't Implode” is copyrighted by Andrew Truscott & Randall Hulet (Rice U.). NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe Pauli Exclusion Principle explains why matter does not simply bunch up. It states that identical fermions cannot occupy the same quantum state simultaneously. This principle is why you do not implode and why normal matter is mostly empty space. It also prevents neutron stars and white dwarf stars from collapsing further.
