Just How Big Are Supermassive Black Holes?

Показать описание
NASA's new animation brings into focus the immense sizes of supermassive black holes, some dwarfing our Solar System. Black holes are points where gravity is so intense, even light can't escape. Intriguingly, we can learn about them from the bright ring of accelerated, energy-emitting matter around them and the "shadow" within the ring, caused by spacetime warping. The universe is believed to host 40 billion billion black holes, ranging from three times the Sun's mass to tens of billions of solar masses. The NASA animation compares ten such supermassive black holes to our Solar System. Notably, the largest one, TON 618, equals 60 billion Suns, and its shadow is so vast that light would take two weeks to cross it.

I have often contemplated that black holes are the vacuums of our Universe. Maybe removing matter from our Universe to another place.

ты можешь за 1 час пройти любое расстояние, а я пройду 1 св год за любое время кто быстрее?
загадка на логику. ты можешь пройти 1 световой год за любое время, но я могу пройти за 1 фентосекунду (самая быстрая единица измерения времени или 1 тик атомных часов) любое расстояние. кто быстрее?
