This (pulsar) neutron star spins 716 times every second, racing at 24% the speed of light. Just one teaspoon of it weighs more than Mount Everest… and this is the real sound of a neutron star captured by NASA.

If only there was sound in the vacuum of outer space.

In the year 2,450 nobody will remember the “United States of America” or any President (for those who doubt. who was Marcus Aurelius?) – but anyway, NASA will endure. I met someone, whose Great-Grandfather discovered the electron, it was always there of course, but this guy proved it. Thomson. Like Archimedes, Ptolomy, Newton and Einstein are immortal, in a way that Napoleon, Patton, Caesar, Alexander, Hannibal, Lysaendar and Hector will not be. There is a lesson there, NASA live longer in the memory of mankind than the USA.

And that teaspoon of matter is named nuclear pasta, for some of it. I love neutron stars

Someone sample that with some lo-fi hip hop.

Reminds of the bridge in Radio Ga Ga but a bit faster.

Is there a fundamental reason ia neutron star couldn’t reach the speed of light at its surface?

I don’t know how, I don’t know why, but this gif popped up in my head listening to it

This is not at all the sound of a pulsar. Sound cannot travel in space. This is what the radio waves emitted from the pulsar sound like when put through an amplifier and speaker.

Why does it spin?
Sounds like Shaggy and Scooby-Doo running in place.
How many teaspoons of our sun does that equal?
How could they capture the sound when there is no sound in space?
Sounds like a 7.3 idi that started in 0 degree weather
Um, not the “real sound”
Good drum session going there.
How does it get so fast?
Nice flanger dude!
When does Eddie VanHalen come in…
Those Cheela must be dancing all night!!
That is the wrong recording for pulsar PSR J1748-2446ad. This is the correct one.

Sounds like a screw got stuck in a tire and is banging against the wheel well
Aphex Twin vibes
There is no “real sound” from space objects.
I’ve always thought that using Mount Everest as a unit of weight is stupid as hell. For height ok, but for weight c’mon..
Could have been made on a guitar with enough pedals
The sound is also spinning.
That’s slipknot
Fred Flintstone bowling- old Twinkletoes!!!
Nice beats.
In Space, no one can hear you scream.
Uh… unless you scream in radio waves.
It’s like hearing a drum festival from a mile away
And just so you know, this pulsar is actually a slow one.
Pulsars can rotate up to thousands of times a second
Yes.
Second.
716 times a second? God damn, those hamsters be putting in some work!
That’s an old Hells Angel that made it to heaven. He wasn’t the cook that made meth. He was the one who made cup cakes for the club.
Sounds like it’s missing.
Sounds like it’s got a flat tire
It needs a balance.

I weigh one teaspoon of 100kg
