Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great Topic This is a great topic, that I would love to see developed into a full course. The lecturer did a good job, but I think more of the animated illustrations will be needed for this complex topic.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Excellent lecture about a fascinating topic Excellent lecture introducing this fascinating topic. What would make the rating of this lecture from 4 to 5 stars is the addition of more images and animations as the lecturer goes through her clear explanations.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A+, good course with future directions A roadmap for further study and the reasoning behind it coupled with the dynamics of Neutron stars. Great!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from More Please We do need more astronomy courses. This one, although very good, would benefit from more illustrations, animations and even getting out of both the studio and lecture format. I’ve read the lecturer’s book, she is a star, and would encourage you to give her the resources to do this.

Overview

Examine the fascinating world of neutron stars and learn what they can teach us about our universe.
Neutron Stars and Pulsars

01: Neutron Stars and Pulsars

In 1967, a strange signal of data was detected by a radio telescope. Pulses of radio emission appeared with astonishing regularity, like a perfectly ticking clock. These pulses were the very first observations of a neutron star, the tiny and dense remnant left behind by the supernova death of an enormous star many times the mass of our own Sun. Explore what neutron stars are. Where do they come from? How do they work? And most important, what can these objects teach us about stellar death, gravity, and our own universe?
