NASA | Massive Black Hole Shreds Passing Star
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
This artist’s rendering illustrates new findings about a star shredded by a black hole. When a star wanders too close to a black hole, intense tidal forces rip the star apart. In these events, called “tidal disruptions,” some of the stellar debris is flung outward at high speed while the rest falls toward the black hole. This causes a distinct X-ray flare that can last for a few years. NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory, Swift Gamma-ray Burst Explorer, and ESA/NASA’s XMM-Newton collected different pieces of this astronomical puzzle in a tidal disruption event called ASASSN-14li, which was found in an optical search by the All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN) in November 2014. The event occurred near a supermassive black hole estimated to weigh a few million times the mass of the sun in the center of PGC 043234, a galaxy that lies about 290 million light-years away. Astronomers hope to find more events like ASASSN-14li to test theoretical models about how black holes affect their environments. During the tidal disruption event, filaments containing much of the star's mass fall toward the black hole. Eventually these gaseous filaments merge into a smooth, hot disk glowing brightly in X-rays. As the disk forms, its central region heats up tremendously, which drives a flow of material, called a wind, away from the disk. Music credit: Encompass by Mark Petrie from Killer Tracks.

so are there any real observations made by NASA that'll prove that black hole exists?

♫ Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come (won't you come) ..... ♫ -
thats how our galaxy most likely got here !!
-
love that

nice

karadeliklerde sanildigi gibi yercekiminin fazla oldugu yerler degildir yanikaradelikler kesinlikle +gravity yerleri degildir karadelikler tam aksine - gravity( negatif gravity, eksi gravity) kaynaklaridir yildizlar buyuzden icine cekilmez zaten isik - gravitye dogru gider isik +gravity den kacar oyuzde isik - gravity olan karadeliklere giderNEGATIF GRAVITY is BLACK HOLE
-
is that is a prove for negative mass and charge ?

Lies!

0:00 look at the stars ad left down

people who say this is fake, you should know that this video is an artist rendition Based on data that we already have. yes, the video is fake, but what it shows is what would happen based on the information we have.
there is no possible way to observe a black hole shredding a star up close. the universe is a big place, light it self takes 4 years just to reach the nearest star to our own. -
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله صباح الخير للجميع افتقدك ناسا تي
أنا لست إله وأخشى رب يوم العرق
ولست مميت بل جزء من ما خلق
سبحان الله ربنا اعجزه القمري قد اتسق
أحمر اللون للحب تعبيرا
إله نا واحد إليه هيا نستبق
أشعار فضائية أيها الكائن الإنسان عد ربك أنت أكرم ما خلق -
is this an animation or are these like real photos taken?

this is why i am staying alive, fighting my depression and anxiety. nature, space and time is so fun to look at and learn about. This universe is truly unique
-
Rekt.
-
is that reall?????
-
So what happened when the "black hole" changed after the star was "destroyed". Why did the "black hole" have that look? And was that a plasma beam coming from the center? If nothing can escape but radiation, what was around it for so long?

фантазмагорија..

could you make more videos like this please
