    For all the people who are wondering how we even know black holes exist even though we don’t see them
    Think of it this way. Say you walk on a beach and you see footsteps on the sand. But nobody is there. But you know someone was there already otherwise those footsteps won’t be there.
    That’s exactly what is happening with black holes. We haven’t seen them directly but we know something is there because many forms of matter are affected around that area even though we don’t see anything
    We detect activity in the form of x-rays, micro waves etc near that area but obviously we don’t directly see the black holes because light isn’t emmited from it
    Edit: we have also detected gravitational waves recently by the LIGO detector by the collision of 2 large “invisible masses” aka neutron stars

      Gowtham Sundar gonna like this for more visibility
      As for blackhole scientists noticed radiations ( really faint ones ) and gravitational wave ( further discovered by LIGO ) is more of the supporting proofs for blackholes. So for saying it does not exist is like saying the footprints on the beach is formed by nothing, therefore invalid.

      We are being drawn in. It's just that our solar system keeps missing it by about 25,000 lightyears. Sag-A* keeps many stars very close to it. The combined mass of Sag A* and all the stars in the bulge of the Milky Way keep us and all the stars in the galactic arms rotating around. Allegedly there's a bunch of dark matter too, but no one has any idea what dark matter is, or whether dark matter is really a thing.

    • @jedaaa

    • @jokuvaan5175
      @jokuvaan5175 7 років тому +39

      Henrik Sundqvist. The best explenation I have heard is the following: As a large star has fused all hydrogen into helium, it starts to fuse the helium into heavier materials. And the heavier the atoms are, the less space they will take. The star starts to collapse and become smaller but it's mass doesn't really change. And as the star(or rather it's core) becomes more and more dense, the gravitational forces caused by all the star's particles are being packed into smaller and smaller space. And as this goes on, the gravitational accelration of the star (or it's core's) is increasing and increasing until at some point, the particles accelerating towards the center of the Sun's mass get close to reaching the speed of light. And as the theory of relativity states, particles with mass cannot reach the speed of light so the space time gets warped instead. So the formation of black hole is needed so that the laws of physics aren't broken.

    The first thing that intrigued me in my life was the mention of blackholes in my middle school text book. Unfortunately we didn't have any more lessons on the universe or astronomy ever again in school( I am from India). I am 30 now and the fascination for black holes lingers on. Is there anything more mysterious in this universe?

    Very good video but : 1:56 E=mc² has nothing to do with black holes. E=mc² is a special case derived from the special theory of relativity by Einstein in 1905. For black holes, you need the general theory of relativity. Actually it all began with the Einstein Field equation, ten years later in 1915... And actually it really began with Karl Schwarzschild in 1916.

      Yeah, I took note that he mentioned that we never saw a black hole but did see quasars (which are actively feeding black holes), and that when we take the photo, we will see the event horizon... We won't, the luminosity of Saggitarius A* is so low that it emits roughly 1 red photons worth of energy every 10^15 years.. We hope to be able to see the accretion disk and the effects of the warped space close to the black hole itself.

    You can see the gravitational effects on other celestial bodies.
    If you take a look at any given Galaxy you will notice first how all of the bodies are clumped together around the center. How is this possible? Black holes. At the center of our own Galaxy there is a Super Massive Black Hole as talked about in the video. Most Galaxies have one at their center.

      We can 'see' our own black hole or rather the stars going around it but this is in data form rather than an actual photo. Using the word 'see' is the wrong word to use. The word 'detect' would be more fitting; we can detect the activity of our own black hole.

      Well, inside a black hole, there is a sorts of pocket universe. It is a bend in space time, causing things to fall in. Now, Einstein’s theorized that there is a c shaped area. There is also s hole. The hole goes from the top, to the bottom. This is sucking things at the top and spewing things at the bottom, hence the idea of the white hole. So, the inside is a vast, infinite void, with an anomalies in the center. My theory is you will experience a diamond shower, from all of the condensed carbon.

    • @henrybloomfield3028
      @henrybloomfield3028 6 років тому

      Lonely Zen scientists have concurred about many things about black holes, and many people still hang attached to the theory of being stretched till you die, running out of resources, and not going in. Going back to what I touched up on Einstein, he said that gravity is mass bending space time. We also now light is unable to escape, therefore nothing can. Or can it? When using a particle gun, scientist shot one particle at two slots. When they did, they had found that the particle went through both of the slots. How is that possible. Particles are always in motion, while some have a definite opposite to a particle all the way on the other side of the world. Particles can make this attachment faster than the speed of light. Back to the black hole, Einstein theorized as well that if you take the universe and poke a hole through it, that hole will begin to attract things because of its affect on space time. The official swartzchild radius is (3x105 cm) x (M / Msun). If that is true, then Einstein’s theory of black holes being wormholes is right.

      Yeah, there's no chance we will detect the Hawking radiation from a black hole like Sag A* any time in the near future. It takes roughly 10 000 times the current age of the universe for the black hole to emit the energy equivalent to a single red-colored photon, according to current theories. At these distances you need to detect *a lot* of photons to get an image out of it.

    •  6 років тому +5

      Sure, I simply used the Xaonon Hawking radiation calculator ( xaonon.dyndns.org/hawking/ ), entered the mass of Sag A* ( 4 310 000 solar masses ), and then divided the resulting luminosity ( 4.844054e-42 watts ) by the energy of a red photon ( 2.83777975e-19 joules ) and the age of the universe ( 13.799 billion years ). After redoing the math, I also found that I made a mistake last time - the actual result is almost 135 000 times the current age to emit that tiny amount of energy.

      You're right, I believe the title of the video is a little bit misleading as the very concept of a black hole is that nothing espaces it, not even light. Which means we wont receive anything from the hole itself. I believe what the picture will show is the event horizon around it.
      We will most likely never get to see a photograph of the black hole itself.

      anslinger _BLOWS do you know how difficult it us to even piece the data together? It's better than nothing at all and we're lucky we live in a time where we can even see something like that.

      Math. Same way many other things were predicted and eventually proven in the universe.

      Just because we can’t see it doesn’t mean it’s not there.

      hunnemeyer84 Math has nothing to do with proving some stupid black holes that are apparently 40000000000 light years away. Try again.
