ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE BLACK HOLES


 

We all heard of bizarre things in life but nothing can be as bizarre as a black hole can get. Many people have many miss conception about black holes. Let us understand the black hole in simple words and let us know some facts about these giants in the Cosmos.

 



What is a black hole?


I want to explain this in simple words; First, we should understand what is escape velocity. It is a minimum velocity at which an object should acquire to leave a heavy body from its gravitational pull in space. for, For example, the Earth has an escape velocity of 11.2 Km/sec. if we go to the Moon it is around 2.38 km/sec and our big star sun has an escape velocity of 600km/sec, So now you can see the pattern bigger the mass larger the escape velocity, in our large vast spread universe a celestial body exists which has such a huge mass and densely packed that the escape velocity is more than 300000km/sec but at this point, even light can't escape as it has reached its limit, So that is the reason we can't see any light emitting from such bodies and We call them the black holes.

 

DIFFERENT TYPES OF BLACK HOLES

 There are mainly three types of black holes that can be seen in our universe, those are Stellar-mass black hole, Intermediate-mass black hole, Supermassive black hole

Stars having 100 solar mass turns into stellar-mass black holes, these are widely spread across our universe, these are small compare to other types of black holes but they have their significant role in wrapping space and time. but the stars having the mass of some million times of our sun turn into the supermassive black hole, these are a real monster in our cosmos. With the help of the Hubble telescope, we found out that every galaxy has a supermassive black hole at its center even our Milky way galaxy has a supermassive black hole which has a mass of 4 million times the sun.

A huge misconception about these black holes is they such everything into them, that’s not true at all if an object is out of the event horizon will orbit the black hole just like we orbit our sun. even if we had a black hole instead of our sun at the center of our solar system we would have pretty much orbited as we do now. Black holes suck everything in only when an object is near enough in its gravitational pull otherwise it is safe from the monster

Black holes are the darkest and brightest objects in the universe!!

Yes, I’m right they can be both we know that black hole stops even light to escape their gravitational pull but it is inside the event horizon when gas clouds are outside the event horizon, they orbit the black hole with a huge orbital speed sometimes these orbital speeds reach half the speed of light with that speed all friction makes the gas raise temperature to some million degrees and the disc becomes the most luminous object in the universe these are so bright that we can see them across the universe. Because of all these activities, we call them active blackholes fortunately the black hole we have in milk way is not an active one.

These brightest black holes are known as Quasar. Despite our well-developed technologies there a lot of things we still don’t know about black holes, what is inside a black hole? Are they work as warm holes to travel through space? And so on, we will be able to answer these questions as humans are capable of things that seem almost impossible.

Saturn And My Childhood

I wondered how a celestial object might have a ring. It all sounded very mythical and quite unbelievable, to be frank. As I grew up, the curiosity built up, and I did accept the truth — yes, Saturn does have rings. Did I see them with my own eyes? No, but many pictures on the internet show the same. All the satellites sent, or the stupendously big telescopes, all say the same thing — the object that is 21 times the diameter of Earth looks so tiny, having a beautiful ring around it. The ring looks so enormous, yet its height is just 10 meters — thinner than a sheet of paper if you scale it down. Anyway, all the science may take a back seat; as a kid, it was always my dream to watch those rings in real time. As I was walking along the roadside this evening, it struck me — it’s October, and Saturn might be high above in the sky, the perfect time to spot it. So I just rushed to my room, took out my telescope, and pointed it toward it — boom! My dream came true. I witnessed the rings!!! ...

TIME

What is time? you may think it is a stupid question to ask, but anyway, ask yourself what is time? Is it what your watch notifies or a calendar or seasons? or time is just a concept in our brain that never really exists? Before scientifically answering this question, let me simplify. Time is a single-direction thing, you can never go in the past. You can’t unscramble the egg, or unread my article. It is one direction for sure but we are not in command of it, It goes at one speed and can’t go backward or forward, yea yea I’m keeping complicated science away. just to avoid complications of time travel, let us be in real and try to get this term time in simple things. As I searched for the definition of time, one thing was sure, it is the most unknown of unknown things in this world. But plays a very vital role, in how we feel that time is very important, sometimes we want to escape, and sometimes we want to re-live it. Among all the things of entropy and time traveling we can make ...

MAKE TIME -COME OUT OF YOUR BUSY LIFE AND LIVE MORE INTENTIONALLY! (book summary)

MAKE TIME W e click on one notification, boom we enter an infinite pool of feeds, And you spend hours of your time without even intending to. We all wish to spend our time consciously. but at the end of the day, we fail to do that one important task. This book talks about how you can make time for the important things in your life and stop making fool of yourself. BUSY BANDWAGON We feel being busy all the time is a kind of badge of honor, for that moment it does feel like we are moving forward with our life. But deep down we are not spending time meaningfully. We fall into default systems, like our cell phones come with default settings we as humans have some default systems in our life which need some modifications. INFINITY POOL We belong to the generation with bombarding distractions, you watch one reel on Instagram, and the app algorithm brings another reel without any efforts in front of you, and one more this loop continuous for hours and we fall for it indefinitely. ...
