Neutron star, artwork
Neutron star. Artwork of a neutron star. This super-dense astronomical object is the remains of a massive star that has collapsed under its own gravity. The star is as dense as an atomic nucleus, having a mass of up to three times that of the Sun despite being only around 25 kilometres across. The star is composed mainly of neutrons, formed when protons and electrons are forcibly combined during the collapse. Neutron stars rotate extremely rapidly, up to several thousand times per second and are extremely hot, with surface temperatures in the millions of degrees Celsius. Some neutron stars produce regular beams of radio emissions known as pulsars

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the enigmatic beauty of a neutron star, an astronomical wonder born from the cataclysmic collapse of a massive star. With its super-dense composition akin to that of an atomic nucleus, this celestial object defies comprehension. Measuring only about 25 kilometers across, it harbors a mass up to three times that of our mighty Sun. Composed predominantly of neutrons forged during the intense gravitational collapse, this peculiar stellar remnant spins at mind-boggling speeds—several thousand rotations per second. Its scorching surface temperature reaches millions of degrees Celsius, illuminating the cosmos with its searing brilliance. Radiating magnetic fields and emitting regular beams of radio waves known as pulsars, some neutron stars become cosmic lighthouses in the vastness of space. This stunning illustration not only captures their dense nature but also hints at their pivotal role in astrophysics and cosmology. Gazing upon this mesmerizing print evokes awe and curiosity about these extraordinary objects that lie within our universe's depths. It serves as a reminder that even after death, stars continue to captivate us with their astonishing transformations and reveal profound secrets about the mysteries beyond our world.
