Black Hole as per NASA new findings

Supermassive black hole

  • The “super” in supermassive black hole is highlighted in this brand-new NASA animation. These monstrosities, which have between 100,000 to tens of billions of times more mass than our Sun, are found at the centre of most large galaxies, including the Milky Way.
  • Any light that crosses the black hole’s event horizon, its point of no return, is permanently confined there, and any light that gets within striking distance of it is bent by the gravity of the black hole. Together, these effects create a “shadow” that is almost twice as large as the real event horizon of the black hole.

 

  • The Milky Way and M87 are just two of the host galaxies for 10 supersized black holes that are seen in the video scaled by the diameters of their shadows.

 

  • The camera slowly draws out from the Sun as it begins to show ever-larger black holes in comparison to various solar system structures. The first up is 1601+3113, a dwarf galaxy that is home to a black hole with a mass of 100,000 Suns.

 

  • Even the shadow of the black hole, which represents how compressed the stuff is, is smaller than the Sun. Sagittarius A*,[ often known as ay-star], is the name of the black hole at the center of our own galaxy.
  • Prediction about black hole for future updates

  • Based on the long-term observation of stars in its orbit, it is estimated to weigh 4.3 million Suns. About half the diameter of Mercury’s orbit in our solar system is covered by its shadow.
  • The NGC 7727 galaxy has two enormous black holes, which are depicted in the animation. One weights 6 million solar masses and the other more than 150 million Suns, and they are separated by around 1,600 light-years.

 

  • Within the next 250 million years, according to astronomers, the duo will merge. The black hole in M87, which has an updated mass of 5.4 billion Suns, is located at the bigger scale of the animation.

  • Even a laser beam moving at 1 billion kph (670 million mph) would take around 2.5 days to cross its enormous shadow.
  • The last black hole in the movie, TON 618, is one of a few number of extremely far-off and huge black holes for which scientists have precise measurements.

 

  • This massive object has a shadow that would take weeks for a light beam to travel through and contains more than 60 billion solar masses. “In the Stars” by Universal Production is the song’s credit. Goddard Space Flight Center Conceptual Image Lab at NASA is the source of the music.
