text: The supernova explosion that created the pulsar may have also given it a kick, so we have discovered pulsars moving through space with velocities of usually about 100 km/sec.
text: As pulsars move through space, their wind can slam into interstellar material in their path, creating a shock that’s called a pulsar wind nebula.
