Neutron stars are a remarkable marriage of Einstein's theory of general relativity with nuclear physics. Their interiors harbor extreme matter that cannot be probed in the laboratory. At such high densities and pressures, their cores may consist predominantly of exotic matter such as free quarks or hyperons. Gravitational wave observations from the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) and from other interferometers, and X-ray observations from the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER), are beginning to pierce through the veil. These observations provide information about neutron star cores, and therefore, about the physics that makes such objects possible. In this review, we discuss what we have learned about the physics of neutron stars from gravitational wave and X-ray observations. We focus on what has been observed with certainty and what should be observable in the near future, with an eye out for the physics that these new observations will teach us.
