Osmium - Before anyone asks.....

Osmium is the densest metal at 476 GigaPascals, that is over 7% more incompressible than diamond. Diamond was once thought to be the hardest and the most incompressible material on earth, either natural or man-made. Alloys of osmium are employed in fountain pen tips, electrical contacts and in other applications where extreme durability and hardness are needed.
