The Black Widow Pulsar is an eclipsing binary millisecond pulsar discovered in the late 20th century. It was presumed to orbit with a brown dwarf companion so tightly that the gravitational pull and heavy radiation of the neutron star created a bow shock of material, thus eventually destroying the companion brown dwarf. As of 3303 AD the brown dwarf seems to have been destroyed already since the system only holds a couple of gas giants.
Also, the pulsar was estimated to move across the galactic plane at a speed of approximately twenty times that of Sol. Subsequent pulsars were eventually found with similar features, hence forming their own 'class' of Black Widow Pulsars eventually (source).
