Terrifying Nasa simulation lets you fly around a black hole
A NEW black hole has been discovered behind Omega Centauri, a collection of 10 million stars, that could be the closest one to Earth.
Omega Centauri contains a black hole at its centre, with the mass of at least 8,200 time that of our Sun, that has evaded scientists until now. Anil Seth, associate professor of astronomy at the University of Utah and co-principal investigator of the study, called it "a once-in-a-career kind of finding".Elon set for spacewalk taking astronauts farthest from Earth for over 50 years
In these images, scientists spotted seven fast-moving stars near the centre of Omega Centauri, that appear as though they are being tugged by a black hole. It is, however, much closer than what scientists previously thought was our closest black hole at 26,000 light-years away, which is a 4.3-million-solar-mass in the center of the Milky Way.Omega Centauri is visible from Earth with the naked eye, and is a fan favourite among stargazers in the southern hemisphere.That being said, it looks no different from other so-called globular clusters - and you won't be able to see the black hole roaring at its centre.
That’s because they have extremely strong gravitational effects, which means once something goes into a black hole, it can’t come back out
