Black hole slaughtering a star! Know what is Scary Barbie, the object discovered by AI

[ad_1] The universe is filled with mysteries far beyond the understanding of humans. With every new discovery, we learn a little more about our vast neighborhood. And the more we learn, we realize how little we actually know. Earlier, astronomers believed that the most luminous or brightest cosmic objects were supernova events. But the latest discovery of a black hole destroying a star has rendered their knowledge useless. This cosmic object is still being measured in terms of energy and so far, it is more intense and shines brighter than a 1000 supernova combined together. The most interesting part is that astronomers would never have been able to find this entity if it was not for artificial intelligence or AI.The study was uploaded to the preprint server arXiv and it has been accepte...

Savage! Black holes ravaging the same stars again and again caught by Newton Telescope

[ad_1] Black holes are the biggest mysteries in Space and yes, they are most savage phenomena in outer space. Now, they have been caught ravaging the same stars over and over again. The ESA XMM-Newton space telescope has provided two different teams of Astronomers a deep look at repeated outbursts of light from inactive black holes that are attacking the same stars again and again. This discovery is as unexpected as it is shocking as the outbursts from these black holes appear only when a black hole ravages a star. The attacks are as savage as can be when these black holes eat parts of the star under attack. Hidden Supermassive Black Hole A hidden supermassive black hole can be "seen" by astronomers when a star veers towards it during a close approach. The star gets ripped apart ...

Awesome NASA image shows Black Hole eating a Star

[ad_1] The star being destroyed by a black hole was 10 million times the mass of our Sun. A number of NASA telescopes have observed an enormous black hole destroying a star that came too close. It was 10 million times the mass of our Sun. This was the 5th-closest example of a black hole eating a star ever observed. The telescope that NASA has deployed for the job is the NuSTAR (Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescopic Array). It is the best space telescope capable of scrutinizing these wavelengths of light. Observing the destruction of a star by a black hole serves a big purpose for humanity. Information can be used to better understand what happens to material that's captured by these stars before being fully depleted. A black hole destroying a star is also known as a "tidal disruption ...
