The spin on that planet would be insane, also you wouldn't want to get near the neutron star. Here's a fun fact "Neutron stars crush half a million times more mass than Earth into a sphere no larger than Brooklyn, United States."
"the surface gravity of a neutron star is 10,000,000,000 times that of earth"
"to fly away from the surface of a neutron star would require a rocket that goes 100,000 km/s"

Second question; life wouldn't change, as we move at the same speed as the planet we are on you wouldn't notice.
You would live longer than people on earth because of time dilation. In space the faster the go or the heavier a planet the more time is stretched, So while we would feel like we lived a hundred years people on earth would have seen us live 105 years

I see your knowledgeable in this field, I only know the basics of astronomy.
