Super-magnetic dead star throws a violent temper tantrum as NASA X-ray spacecraft looks on

TLDR:

* Scientists gain unprecedented insight into extreme magnetic fields and neutron star physics by observing polarized X-rays from a magnetar outburst.
* NASA’s IXPE X-ray telescope successfully observed a violent outburst from a magnetar, a neutron star with the universe’s strongest magnetic field.
* IXPE made the first-ever detection of polarized X-ray light emitted during an outburst event from the super-magnetic dead star.

This headline sounds like it’s from the onion. The dumbing down of Americans has reached a new level.
