Weber 512 was a binary star system located in the Perseus sector.
History and specifics[]
It was a gravitational anomaly about one light-year from the Megaran system. It possessed a pair of neutron stars that orbited one another at an average separation of about two hundred kilometers. Each member of the pair was as massive as Earth's sun, and their whirligig orbit caused them to generate some intense gravitational waves. The pair also had a powerful, complicated magnetic field, one which stirred up the interstellar hydrogen into a maelstrom of radiation as the pair spun through its orbit dozens of times every second. The Vulcan Science Academy sent a robot probe to study this system but was destroyed upon discovering that the Megaran civilization had underwent a massive industrial revolution.
