 And became billions of times stronger than our sun's, now as the star span, it channelled out radio signals from its north and south poles, signals that swept past earth with every rotation¹ of the star, this was the source of the mysterious pulses, some are so regular that pulsars are among the most accurate clocks in the universe, the discovery of neutron² stars was a vindication³ of the power of theoretical physics, it set astronomers⁴ wondering if other strange bodies that had been predicted could be lurking⁵ in space, and there is one hypothetical object that was even weirder⁶ than a neutron star. The last stage of a star's life is as much an idea of science fiction as a physical reality.

For years most scientists dismissed black holes as fanciful conjecture⁷.
