visualizations.py, line 160
The Algorithm tries to set a default temperature for the star by its spectral type (pulsar) which is not on its list.

I can fix it :) But I need your advice, Hanno. Wikipedia says that the average surface temperature of a neutron star is about 6×10^5 K. Can I set this value by default for pulsar spectral class?

I think the best thing would be to not calculate the Habitable Zone around a neutron star. There are many reasons why it will not be habitable...
