NASA Black Hole Visualization [Full HD]

(affiliate link)

NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center and Jeremy Schnittman have created this visualization of a black hole and how its immense gravity distorts our view if we were near it.

In this simulation, matter has collected around the black hole called an accretion disk. These are made of dust, gas and even shredded stars. The object's strong magnetic field forms bright knots in the disk. Light and dark "lanes" in the disk are caused by portions of the disk traveling slower than other portions.

To a viewer, the disk would appear brighter on the left side than it does on the right. That's because it moves toward us (looking head on) and the right side moves away from us.

The innermost ring is called the "photon ring" made of multiple rings that grow thinner as light circles the hole several times before it finally escapes. Inside that is the black hole's shadow — which is twice the size of the event horizon. Once inside the event horizon, nothing can escape.

This is legit anyone who’s ney-saying... and ps thanks for not adding a ton of stupid voice over onto this. Sometimes less is more

Beautiful. And the music is fantastic!

This is amazing! Happy to see that scientists are better understanding space and all, really fascinating to see what is out there!

It's pretty impressive! The brightness (blue-shifted wavelengths) on the left side of the accretion disk and the darkness (red-shifted) on the right due to the Doppler effect is correctly visualized in this clip. It is absent in the _Interstellar_ movie. 😉

Maravilhoso, Black Rolé, vendo agora Dezembro 2019👆

Oof the files arent available at all. We need permission. Do you mind making a link that we can actually access?

[nnnn]

I am pretty sure I saw exactly the same in the Interstellar film.

[BOLOYOO]

So to be sure. This is what would we see by naked eye?

[DanA-xtxy]

how can we know, we still havnt got close enough to see one

[snak]

Now that's the black hole i like, not that fortnite dog shit

[Monolithofstupidity]

HOW big was this render I need to know
