A historic scientific first was announced by scientists, and at its center there is a black hole about which they did not know much until now, but which helps them make an extremely important discovery. According to the discovery made by scientists, they managed for the first time to discover bursts of X-rays thrown into the universe from behind a black hole that is hundreds of millions of light-years away from Earth.
The black hole would have thrown into the universe bursts of X-rays that generated a very strong light, and as they monitored the location, they discovered not only that they came in many rows, but also that they had several colors. Until now, scientists thought it was impossible for a black hole to emit X-rays in such a way, but the premiere reveals how much we still don't know about the universe we are part of.
The HISTORICAL Scientific Premiere, the Black Hole that Stunned Scientists
The explosions of X-rays thrown by the black hole into the cosmic space were followed by a series of deilluminations of much lower intensity, which are, according to the researchers, reflections of the initial explosions generated by the accretion disk of the cosmic object. Scientists say that since the light that enters a black hole does not come out, what they see is actually the light behind such an object.
"Any light that goes into that black hole doesn't come out, so we shouldn't be able to see anything behind the black hole. However, another strange feature of the black hole makes this observation possible. The reason we can see this is because that black hole is warping space, bending light and twisting the magnetic fields around it.” said Dan Wilkins, a researcher at Stanford University.
The discovery made by the scientists is a very unusual one, even according to him, and this is because they have never seen anything like this before, and they don't know for sure how to explain everything at the moment. Even if they have some assumptions about this black hole, they still need more information to be sure that those bursts of light are really coming from where they imagine they are coming from.
The black hole remains an extremely mysterious object, which still hides many secrets, so it remains to be seen to what extent future discoveries will show what is hidden in the universe we are part of.
