Re: Feeding a Black Hole

Explanation: This impressive color composite shows spiral galaxy M81 across the electromagnetic spectrum. It combines X-ray data (blue) from the Chandra Observatory, infrared data (pink) from the Spitzer Space Telescope, and an ultraviolet image (purple) from the GALEX satellite, with a visible light (green) Hubble image. The inset highlights X-rays from some of M81's black holes, including black holes in binary star systems with about 10 times the mass of the sun, as well as the central, supermassive black hole of over 70 million solar masses. Comparing computer models of the giant black hole's energy output to the multiwavelength data suggests that feeding that monster is relatively simple -- energy and radiation is generated as material in the central region swirls inwards forming an accretion disk. In fact, the process otherwise appears to be just like the accretion process feeding M81's stellar mass black holes, even though the central black hole is millions of times more massive. M81 itself is about 70,000 light-years across and only 12 million light-years away in the northern constellation Ursa Major."

in english please!!

ie. big black hole is big and eats lots of space matter!!! u r insignificant!!! lol

Re: Feeding a Black Hole

All this is amazing, the infinitely BIG!!!

But the wicked thought kicks in when you think of the infinitely small ...

and we humans are "lost" somewhere in the middle

the biggest discovery would be what connects the infinitely BIG with the infinitely small. Hopefully CERN should decipher the Higgs boson particle...... speaking of which, caught this interesting read on CNN today

I've been waiting for CERN to start its tests. Aug 2008 - to Infinity or BUST

Re: Feeding a Black Hole

i found a nasa site which hosts pictures taken from a satelite of various earth parts, cant remember the name of the site or address should i say but the pictures were unbelievable especially the one of mount killamongiro in africa

yeah i saw that today too... goodbye world

Re: Feeding a Black Hole

naa I doubt it's gonna be a doomsday event..... remember the hype around Y2K ? granted this is on an infinitely more advanced scale but I doubt anything on the magnitude of what is being feared, will happen.

jesus what a massacre

Re: Feeding a Black Hole

i like to think of black holes as corresponding to the will and centers/ of the uber divine manifesting in the boundless.

i sure hope our earth donts merit oblitarationz by a rogue "black hole" tho. "y no kindness?" fuxck ignorance and such.

just a lil pondering.

Re: Feeding a Black Hole

^ Is that english....?


In any event- those CERN tests are exciting. Granted we probably won't see the results from the data for quite sometime but I'm sure there will be some answers. I for one am pretty excited to see what happens.

If anyone that fears earth being destroyed- would that be such a bad thing? This place is pretty fucked right now anyway. Might as well roll the dice.
