Abstract
The phenomenon of stellar collapse is considered from the viewpoint of the neo-Newtonian ballistic theory of light. The restrictions of the special theory of relativity are thus removed. The theory predicts that a collapsing star will expand again, and continue to alternately expand and collapse at a rate depending on the mass and greatest radius of the star. On each cycle material will be lost, including photons which appear to distant observers as the emissions of a pulsar. It is concluded that pulsars are oscillating stars, that these eventually "evaporate" away completely, and that there is no such object as a black hole.
