NASA shares amazing visualization of 22 black holes in our Milky Way galaxy

In 2015, astronomers first detected combining black holes through space-time. The ripples of time-time called gravitational waves are the main way to find this ebony puzzle is to look for it in a binary system where they interact with a companion star.

New -NASA shared amazing visualization of the 22 black hole systems in our Milky Way Galaxy and his closest neighbor, a great Magellan cloud. All black holes are displayed on the same scale, with their orbits accelerated about 22,000 times. The view of each system reflects how we see it from the earth.Most systems have a disk increase around themselves, whereas, in some, like a well-known system called Cygnus X-1, the star produces a large outflow. Black hole gravity partially sweeps this outflow to form a disk.

Dishes of accretion containing gas heats when slowly spinning inward. Therefore, he shines in visible light, ultraviolet, and finally, X-rays. Disk increase uses a different color scheme because they display a higher temperature than stars.The largest binary disk called GRS 1915, which can extend more than 50 million miles (80 million kilometers), is greater than the distance of Mercury from the Sun.

NASA mentioned in a blog, “Star colors range from blue-white to reddish, representing temperatures from 5 times hotter to 45% cooler than our sun. Because the accretion disk reaches a higher temperature, they use a different color scheme. “

“While the black hole is shown on a scale that reflects their masses, all described are far greater than in reality. The black hole Cygnus X-1 weighs about 21 times more than the sun, but the surface is called the horizon of events-only stretches about 77 miles (124 kilometers). The ball that is too large also covers the visible distortion that will be produced by the gravitational effect of black holes.
