toBlack holes are often described as extremely dense physical objects in which space-time is distorted.. They are evoked in films and books as vortexes through which you can travel through time or across the universe, but this has not been confirmed by scientists.
According to what was published by “National Geographic”. Black holes form when a massive star reaches the end of its life.its core collapses and then explodes.
There is a great diversity of these objects in the universe, for example: In the center of the Milky Way there is a massive hole called Sagittarius A*. The suns and planets revolve around it, including the solar system.
What happens inside a black hole?
the a pot He posted a video on May 6 in which he was captured A simulation of what would happen if an object entered the gravitational pull of a black hole.
“The destination is a supermassive black hole 4.3 million times the mass of our Sun, equivalent to the monster at the center of our galaxy., milky way. To simplify complex calculations, the black hole does not rotate“, says NASA.
He explained that ““A flat, rotating cloud of hot, glowing gas, called an accretion disk, surrounds the black hole and serves as a visual reference during the fall.”.
“The same is true for bright structures called photon rings.Which is formed near the black hole due to light that has passed around it one or more times“, added.
The work was completed in about five days using only 0.3 percent of the Discover's 129,000 processors. Performing the same task on a traditional laptop would take more than a decade.
The first image of the black hole Sagittarius A*
In May 2022, with the help of eight synchronized radio telescopes around the world, the first image of the supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy was taken. The Milky Way galaxy, called Sagittarius A*.
This space from which not even light can escape, It has a diameter of 44 million kilometers and is about 26 billion light-years from the solar system..
In the picture that impressed scientists The black hole is seen surrounded by a yellow and orange ring. With three brightest points.
It is worth noting that this fact coincides with Albert Einstein's theory of relativityWho expressed the existence of these dense bodies with equations, at a time when many were unable to understand his predictions.
