Pulsars are important astronomical phenomena used not only to test the general theory of relativity and to study matter under extreme conditions, but also to measure time and determine position in space. They consist of extremely dense remnants of massive stars, known as neutron stars. Pulsars rotate around their own axis at such an incredibly fast speed that they emit periodic signals resembling a cosmic lighthouse. The “The Universe – Pulsar coin in color” is delivered in a protective capsule including an illustrated product card.
* This coin has been colored by a private company.
