Firstly, I would like to say hello to everyone as this is my first post.
I am an artist working a personal project that will be a visual investigation into the effects of a collision between a Neutron Star and Earth.
The star would have a fully collapsed core at 1.5 solar masses (maybe 15km diameter), with it’s poles not pointing towards earth… or if you think it would be more interesting, pointing towards earth.
I was hoping to get some feedback on the sequence of events that people think would transpire as the star approached our planet, events like: gravitational effects, radiation, tidal forces, weather effects, seas would boil, Earth would stop spinning, etc.
I have included an image I hastily put together as an initial talking point. If you would like to reply with what do believe to be accurate and/or inaccurate about the scene, that would be great. Or include any comments as you wish.
Thank you for your time,
CJ
