NASA says it best: "Neutron Stars Are Weird!"

They are extraordinarily compact. Just a sugar cube-sized piece of this extremely dense material — the remnants of a collapsed, exploded star — weighs 1 billion tons. They're known to rotate quickly, but scientists just found an extreme example of a neutron star spinning faster than a blender:

716 times per second. You read that right.

"If future observations confirm this, the 4U 1820-30 neutron star would be one of the fastest-spinning objects ever observed in the universe, matched only by another neutron star called PSR J1748–2446," Gaurava K. Jaisawal, an astrophysicist in the Department of Space Research and Technology at the Technical University of Denmark, said in a statement.

SEE ALSO: If aliens harnessed solar power, could we detect them? NASA investigated.

Jaisawal is a lead author on the research, which was recently published in The Astrophysical Journal.

The researchers used an instrument attached to the International Space Station, called the NICER X-ray telescope (NICER stands for Neutron star Interior Composition Explorer), to identify the rapidly-spinning object. Neutron stars can blast pulses of X-rays, a type of radiation, into space. This neutron star is only about 7.5 miles (12 kilometers) across, but is 1.4 times the mass of the sun, an object 865,000 miles wide.

It's also not alone.

The neutron star , located some 26,000 light-years away in the Milky Way galaxy, is part of a binary star system, meaning it has a companion. In this case, it's companion is a "white dwarf," which is a sun-like star that has grown old and shed its outer layers. Just a dense Earth-sized core remains. And they have a volatile relationship. The extremely massive neutron star, wielding profound gravity, rips material away from its white dwarf companion. Eventually, this amassing material triggers "thermonuclear blasts" that can forge heavy elements such as gold and platinum.

"During these bursts, the neutron star becomes up to 100,000 times brighter than the Sun, releasing an immense amount of energy," Jerome Chenevez, who coauthored the research, explained. "So we are dealing with very extreme events, and by studying them in detail, we get new insights into the existing life cycles of binary star systems and the formation of elements in the universe."

Elon Musk is facing yet another lawsuit regarding the $1 million voter lottery run by his political action committee America PAC. It seems that in defending himself against the first lawsuit, he provided fuel for a second one.

Filed to a Texas District Court by an Arizona resident on Tuesday, the new 14-page class action lawsuit accuses Musk and America PAC of fraud and breach of contract relating to the $1 million giveaway launched last month.

SEE ALSO: Judge refuses to stop Elon Musk’s million dollar election 'sweepstakes'

Open to registered voters in the seven swing states of Pennsylvania, Georgia, Nevada, Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin, and North Carolina, Musk's $1 million daily giveaway required participants to provide their personal information and sign a petition supporting the First and Second Amendments. Musk and America PAC offered $47 to each signatory "in appreciation for [their] support," and stated that those who signed would also go into a random draw to win $1 million, with a new winner chosen each day from Oct. 19.

Tuesday's class action now claims that the selection of $1 million winners wasn't random at all, and that Musk and America PAC falsely stated it was in order to entice people to sign their petition.

The case specifically references statements made in a previous case concerning Musk's giveaway brought by Philadelphia's district attorney Larry Krasner. In said case, Krasner accused Musk and America PAC of running an illegal lottery, attempting to influence voters, and violating consumer protection laws by making "deceptive, vague or misleading statements." 

Of course, Musk denied such allegations. The defense claimed that the apparent lottery winners were in fact America PAC spokespeople, and that the ostensible $1 million winnings were actually paychecks. Further, each recipient was chosen based on their personal stories, and signed contracts with America PAC.

"The $1 million recipients are not chosen by chance," said Musk's lawyer Chris Gober. "We know exactly who will be announced as the $1 million recipient today and tomorrow."

A judge ruled in favour of Musk on Monday, deciding that the $1 million America PAC giveaway could continue. Even so, the judgment initially appeared to have little material impact considering that the lottery was scheduled to end on Election Day regardless. 

However, Musk and America PAC's defense in said case directly contradicted their public claims that the winners of the $1 million giveaway would be chosen at random, sparking this new class action lawsuit just one day later.

"Defendants’ statements indicating that individuals who signed the petition would be chosen at random to win $1,000,000 were false, and Defendants knew those statements were false at the time they were made," read the class action suit. 

"Had Plaintiff been aware that she had no chance of receiving $1,000,000, she would not have signed or supported the America PAC petition and would not have provided her [personal identifying information] to Defendants."

In addition to at least $5 million in damages, the lawsuit is requesting the destruction of all personal identifying information that Musk and America PAC collected from those who entered the supposed giveaway. Participants were required to provide their first and last names, email address, postal address, and phone number as a condition of entering the alleged lottery. 

The lawsuit claims that Musk has profited off this supposed giveaway by driving traffic to his social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter), and that he can now profit further by using or selling participants' personal information. Musk and America PAC largely failed to state how signatories' personal information would be used or stored, the form merely noting that phone numbers specifically "will only be used to confirm you are the legitimate petition signer." 

"[The plaintiffs] having now discovered no legitimate lottery existed, and that they provided their personal identifying information to Defendants for nothing in exchange, now demand Defendant be enjoined from using the data or otherwise providing it to third parties," the complaint states.

An NBC News report published last week found that of the $1 million lottery's first 14 winners, nine were registered Republicans. Of the remaining five, three had publicly voiced support for Republican candidate Donald Trump, and one had described himself as a former Democrat. Not a single one of the winners were registered Democrats or visible supporters of Democratic candidate Kamala Harris.

Musk himself is a vocal Trump supporter as well, though he has previously refuted allegations that he's using monetary incentives to register Republicans. The billionaire claimed that anyone who signed the petition had "a daily chance of winning" $1 million, and that they "can be from any or no political party."

It might be technically true that supporters of any political party could sign the petition for a "chance" at the $1 million prize. However, considering the statistics on the actual winners and the revelations regarding how they're chosen, it seems that your odds are infinitely better if your political beliefs align with Musk's.

If you like playing daily word games like Wordle, then Hurdle is a great game to add to your routine.

There are five rounds to the game. The first round sees you trying to guess the word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters shown in each guess. If you guess the correct answer, it'll take you to the next hurdle, providing the answer to the last hurdle as your first guess. This can give you several clues or none, depending on the words. For the final hurdle, every correct answer from previous hurdles is shown, with correct and misplaced letters clearly shown.

An important note is that the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses does necessarily indicate the number of times that letter appears in the final hurdle.

It's hard finding a computer that balances affordability with functionality. You could probably find a Chromebook out there that costs as much as a large meal, but if you need something that works hard for a soft price, take a look at this MacBook Air. Some budget-friendly computers might slow down with too many tabs open, or the battery struggles to last through the day, but not this one.

This refurbished 13.3-inch MacBook Air is powered by Apple’s M1 chip, which delivers incredible performance. Tasks that used to feel sluggish on older laptops, like editing videos or running heavy apps, now fly by, but the price isn't too high, just $514.99 (reg. $1,499). This laptop has a "Grade A" refurbished rating, so you'll be getting a reliable machine at a steep discount.

The M1 MacBook Air is a legendary machine

Mashable named this laptop one of the best in the world even four years after its initial release. It's since been replaced by a new generation of MacBook Airs, but this laptop is still popular among shoppers on a budget.

What makes this laptop so great? This MacBook's 8-core CPU helps make sure things run smoothly, while the 8-core GPU takes care of graphics, so it's a great fit for designers or gamers who need crisp visuals. And since it’s completely fanless, you won’t have to deal with any distracting noise, even when it’s working hard. With up to 18 hours of battery life on a single charge, you can go from morning meetings to evening binge-watching without reaching for a charger. Whether you're using it to browse, stream, or work, this MacBook has your back for an entire day. 

Always on the move? This laptop weighs under 3 pounds, so you might not even notice you have it on hand.  And with two Thunderbolt ports, you still get the slim profile MacBooks are known for with plenty of hardware options. 

Even though this MacBook Air is refurbished, it’s Grade "A" quality, meaning it's in near-mint condition and works great. The only real sign it's refurbished is the price. 

On sale (but not for long)
