Would this work in a car? If so, where would one put it? Thank you.

Clip it into any surface or you could put it in a flat surface in the car whichever is more comfortable for you

"30.9 pounds" - i want to travel lighter and already packing 50 lbs. another 30.9 lbs would kill me! i'm buying anyway. is it made from neutron star?

Nope. It weighs a couple of ounces. I have several. One pinned to my camera strap, one on my pack strap and one in my emergency kit. One of the most useful instruments I carry.

Does this compass work in northern and southern hemisphere?

Sure, except right at north and south poles it may get confused. but you arent traveling to the arctic are you???. Make sure any magnetic on your gloves are out of the way and any iron metal poles etc. are away from the compass.
