LBlack holes are often described as extremely dense bodies of matter where space-time is distorted.. In movies and books, they are evoked as vortices where you can travel in time or through the universe, but this has not been confirmed by scientists.
According to what is captured in ‘National Geographic’, Black holes form when a supermassive star reaches the end of its life.its core collapses and then explodes.
In the universe there is a large variety of these bodies, for example, At the center of the Milky Way is a supermassive hole called Sagittarius A* and around it rotate suns and planets, among them the solar system.
What happens inside a black hole?
The NASA published a video on May 6 in which it was recorded a simulation of what would happen if a body enters the gravity of a black hole.
“The destination is a supermassive black hole with 4.3 million times the mass of the Sun, equivalent to the monster at the center of our galaxy, the Milky Way. To simplify complex calculations, the black hole does not rotatesays NASA.
It is explained that ““A flat, swirling cloud of hot, glowing gas called an accretion disk surrounds the black hole and serves as a visual reference during the fall.”.
“The same applies to bright structures called photon rings.which is formed closer to the black hole from light that has orbited it one or more times“, it was added.
The work was completed in regarding five days using just 0.3 percent of Discover’s 129,000 processors. Performing the same task on a regular laptop can take more than a decade.
The first image of the black hole Sagittarius A*
In May 2022, using eight synchronized radio telescopes around the world, the first image of the supermassive black hole at the center of The Milky Way, called Sagittarius A*.
This room, which not even the light can escape, It has a diameter of 44 million kilometers and is regarding 26 billion light years from the solar system..
In the picture that excited scientists, The black hole is seen to be surrounded by a yellow and orange ring. with three lighter points.
It is worth mentioning 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.
