A neutron star formed from some supernovas of a massive stars. Neutron stars are 30,000 to 70,000 times smaller than the Sun. Neutron stars rotate very fast; they can take anything from one seven-hundredth (\frac{1}{700})of a second to thirty (30) seconds. Also, the gravitational pull of a neutron star is about three times as strong as that of Earth.
