How fast can a neutron star spin? This is what a recent study published in The Astrophysical Journal hopes to address as an international team of more than a dozen researchers have identified one of ...
NASA says it best: "Neutron Stars Are Weird!" They are extraordinarily compact. Just a sugar cube-sized piece of this extremely dense material — the remnants of a collapsed, exploded star — weighs 1 ...
It's not science fiction: Scientists have discovered a neutron star that spins faster than any blender humans have ever made. In a recently published study, scientists discovered that the 4U 1820-30 ...

The Fastest Spinning Black Hole Ever Discovered Is Unleashing Chaos at the Speed of Light!
The supermassive black hole at the center of galaxy M87 has long been a subject of intrigue for astronomers. Recently, LiveScience reported groundbreaking findings about this colossal cosmic entity, ...
A dead star 27,400 light-years away appears to be having one of the most epic stellar discos we've ever seen. This discovery, says a team led by astrophysicist Gaurava Jaisawal of the Technical ...
Scientists have calculated the rotational speed of asteroid 2024 BX1, which exploded over Berlin earlier this year, by letting it trail in images of the sky. It turns out, 2024 BX1 was spinning faster ...
Astronomers have spotted pure chaos lurking in the cosmos. Thousands of light years away from Earth, a small yet intensely heavy star is releasing bursts of material as powerful as repeating atomic ...
Neutron stars are so named because in the simplest of models they are made of neutrons. They form when the core of a large star collapses, and the weight of gravity causes atoms to collapse. Electrons ...
(Nanowerk News) The Milky Way still holds many secrets about the universe. Now, researchers from DTU have managed to uncover one of them using an X-ray space telescope mounted on the International ...
New research in our Milky Way has revealed a neutron star that rotates around its axis at an extremely high speed. It spins 716 times per second, making it one of the fastest-spinning objects ever ...
