Pulsar Online - free browser game
Pulsars are highly magnetized, rotating neutron stars that emit a beam of electromagnetic radiation. The radiation can only be observed when the beam of emission is pointing towards the Earth. This is called the lighthouse effect and gives rise to the pulsed nature that gives pulsars their name. Because neutron stars are very dense objects, the rotation period and thus the interval between observed pulses is very regular. For some pulsars, the regularity of pulsation is as precise as an atomic clock. The observed periods of their pulses range from 1.4 milliseconds to 8.5 seconds. A few pulsars are known to have planets orbiting them, such as PSR B1257+12. Werner Becker of the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics said in 2006, "The theory of how pulsars emit their radiation is still in its infancy, even after nearly forty years of work."

As a recompensation, all player have been avarded with 5000Am and 20 Traxium units. Happy hunting.
Login with Facebook problems
During last few hours there were major problems with "Login with Facebook" feature. FB servers were unable to response within given timeout and login process was terminated with an error. Connection timeout was increased and feature is functional. Unfortunately, currently login process is taking up to 30 seconds (response from FB servers is required). I will try to make it faster is possible.
