 Reckless pulsars -- spinning
searchlights in space -- might tear themselves
apart if they whirled too
fast, but ripples in the cosmic fabric first
predicted by Albert
Einstein may set a celestial speed limit.
That limit is still extremely
high, about 760 revolutions per second, astronomers
said on 7/2/03. But scientists figure some of the fastest pulsars could
technically go two or three times that speed. Image is a
still from a
supernova animation of 'Birth of a Pulsar.'
