The major feature of this system is a black hole and a giant neutron star in a close binary orbit, thus lending the system its name -- Ammutseba, the Devourer of Stars. The Ammutseba Black Hole / Neutron Star Binary System, or Ammutseba for short, serves as a fantastic case study on the effects of gravitational lensing between two hyper-dense objects and how said lensing only affects far-away objects, whilst leaving nearby objects undistorted. These two stellar objects orbit each other rapidly, with an orbital period of a mere 0.5 days, fast enough to detect with the naked eye.
