- In John C. Wright’s science fiction novel, “Count to a Trillion” and its sequels, V668 Centauri is called the “Diamond Star”, after the crystalline carbon core. In the story of the novel, it is the destination of the first human interstellar journey: an alien artifact called “The Monument” is found orbiting it, which increases human knowledge of mathematics immensely, as well as a huge supply of antimatter which is captured and used as an energy source.
