Has anyone come up with a reasonable explanation as to how planets could
form around a pulsar? I thought that was impossible with current
astronomical models; the preceding supernova explosion supposedly removing
any planets (and the material to create new ones?) from the system.
Is there any reason why the super-advanced would like be near pulsars?
