Elite Dangerous

is there any actual white dwarfs in this game?
i see so many people calling the neutron stars, white dwarfs, however the two are very different, and it kinda annoys me a bit when i hear people calling the neutron stars white dwarfs. however back to the question, is there actual small white stars (White dwarfs) in this game?

Of course, there are. Sirius has one, the secondary star, off my head.

They are all over the place, check the system map and it will tell you what kind of star it is

Unfortunately very true, they both look identical but the neutrons move while the white dwarfs dont,

A more profound visual difference would certainly help people such as myself avoid overcooking are ships during sleepy late night exploration when we dont notice the much larger exclusion zone of the dwarf.

While we're on the subject of neutron and white dwarf stars I have a related question about authenticity,

In my travels I have seen 2 different speeds of neutron star, normal and rapidly spinning fan blade of death,

Is this a normal/real thing or is it a graphical glitch?

Pretty sure it's normal.
I've seen ones with oversized cones , tiny cones and my friend bumped into super angry spinning one.
