Today on #365DaysOfAstro, @AwesomeAstroPod talk to Dr Becky on how to grow a supermassive black hole – and it’s not as easy as you think! Always picture a black hole as a gigantic hoover, sucking up everything that dares to stray too close? Think again…
Besides dark matter and dark energy, is there any possibility there’s anything else in outer space? What are the possibilities that white holes are really out there? More with @AstronomyCast
We hear that black holes absorb all the light that falls into them. And yet, we hear of black holes shining so brightly we can see them halfway across the Universe. What’s going on? Which is it?
Why didn’t the big bang collapse in a singularity? What would a universe-sized black hole be like? Now that I think about it, do we live inside a giant black hole already?
Astronomers describe ‘cosmic noon’ as a dramatic period in the history of our Universe when it was buzzing with galaxy mergers and furious star formation. And here’s the evidence of the early merger.
This month Awesome Astronomy News talk about new data on the M87 blackhole, the architecture of planetary systems, the hottest stars, an impact crater in France and how Mars might not have been oxygen rich.
Astronomers recently found that the growth of a galaxy and the growth of the supermassive black hole, or SMBH, at its center have a lot in common.
Black holes do not emit any light of their own making them impossible to see directly with telescopes. So, what’s the closest one to us?
Today’s @NOIRLabAstro will have @halfastro discuss with Kareem El-Badry on how he led a team that discovered a black hole that is not actively consuming material and that is also the closest currently known black hole to Earth.
Lets explore Venus with robotic balloons! More about this aerobots with @WSHCrew & Dr. Jacob Izraelevitz. And weekly update about Artemis, the closest black hole and more at #365daysOfAstro
