• But it has more mass than the Sun 😲

🧠 Imagine:

Squeezing the Sun into a ball the size of a city!

⚖️ Why is it so heavy?

• Neutron stars are packed very tightly
• Atoms are crushed together
• Protons and electrons combine to form neutrons

👉 One spoon of neutron star material would weigh billions of tons on Earth!

🌀 What are neutron stars like?

• Extremely strong gravity
• Spin very fast
• Some spin hundreds of times per second
• Very hot and bright

Some neutron stars are called pulsars because they send out light signals like a space lighthouse 🚨

🌍 Are neutron stars dangerous?

No worries 😊
They are very far away and do not affect Earth.

🌟 Fun facts for kids

• Neutron stars are among the densest objects in the universe
• They can have strong magnetic fields
• Scientists study them to understand space and gravity

🧠 Easy way to remember

Big star explodes → tiny, super-heavy star remains
That is a neutron star
