Explanation

A pulsar is a highly magnetized rotating neutron star that emits beams of electromagnetic radiation from its magnetic poles, appearing as regular pulses of energy when observed. They were first discovered in 1967 and are some of the most energetic objects in the universe. Meteorites and nebulae don't emit excessive radiation, while black holes absorb light rather than emit it.
