Just reverse it how they look in horizons. That look is mess. A big blue bubble and that bubble stays same even if you get far away from them.

No, pretty sure it's a graphical glitch, perhaps a broken attempt to apply some type of glare effect. The giveaway is that the apparent size of the halo doesn't change with distance, until goes away abruptly beyond some point. The jet cones still look and work as usual once you get up close to them.Oh..not used one since mapping em from colonia back to bubble. Then they had their tails...? Id Warrent this is the new thinking behind how one really looks?
I hit the exclusion zone at ~770 km and then I was able to get to about 750 km. YOU NEED AN EFFICIENT PP. It's difficult to judge the size, even in VR because of all the light. Turn down Gamma to minimum. It goes way lower after update 3. Also place your free camera so that it picks up a reflection of the star in your ship:Oh neat, how close did you have to get to see that? A neutron star should be around 3-5 km across - does it seem like it's the right size?
