Pulsar!

Did I just find a Pulsar? :O

No, probably not, but this is the closest thing I have run into in game. A hyper-active neutron star. [yesnod]

And yes, I did fly through the middle of them...

some of them seems to spin faster. I stumbled on one very similar to yours and it is a very nice find. Crab pulsar does not spin so fast... Neutron stars are definitely more visually attractive these days, but I hope they and BH get further improvements.
 
One possibility I can think of for them lies in the tail and how energetic the spin is. Instead of the current model of "N star has a tail x length" base the length on the rate of spin. So, a 'lazy' neutron star (very slow spin) has a tiny tail, perhaps half the size of the current model. Average spin rate has the current model, fast 2-4 times as long, and ludicrous speed goes plaid... err, I mean has one that could be multiple to dozens of light seconds in length.

Perhaps others have a single jet situated near the equator of the spin so that the end result is a spiral disc instead of a bow-tie shape.

Yeah, I'll keep dreaming. ^_~

Why not? What is the bulkiest "bow tie" that has been found to date?
