    G objects are stars that, after being stretched by gravitational forces acting on them, are in effect sloshing around as the mass extruded from the core is rebounding back toward the core trying to go back toward equilibrium.

The organelle is the fourth example in history of primary endosymbiosis-the process by which a prokaryotic cell is engulfed by a eukaryotic cell and evolves beyond symbiosis into an organelle."

      There are many carefully planned simulations, verified by observations, that you aren't aware of and haven't seen. Many new discoveries have been made in the past by creating a simulation or model first, and then searching the universe for objects that fit the bill. Same emissions, light spectrum, physical characteristics, etc. If none are found that match, the model or simulation is 'filed', so to speak.

      Not a bad guess actually, as there is said to be a smaller 100K stellar mass object, somewhere in the mix. Deduced through angular momentum calculations and potentially responsible for the mysterious pulses that were detected a few years back.
      Tidal stripping however from the larger blackhole likely rendered it mostly devoid of its own accretion, making it almost completely invisible to scans, but the additional scrambling to the rotation patterns in that region still partially give it away.

The estimated size of the U.S. resource (50,000 to 500,000 quads) suggests a considerable potential impact on future power generation. In a previous seven-year study, we concluded that there are no insurmountable barriers that would invalidate the magma energy concept."

Also, what may be some impact of tidal forces upon internal energy levels and on fusion processes of heavier elements, which may also affected by loss of mass to, say, the accretion disk with simultaneous interaction of highly dynamic magnetic fields approaching perihelion? Finally, are you aware of any hypotheses considering the fabric of space-time in such gravitationally intense and variable environments at varying distances from the black hole but in conjunction with orbital patterns of different star types and astrophysical fluid dynamics of, say, directional movement of astrophysical jets?

    10% of the speed of light must be measured from near the black hole (measured with red or blue shift here), but since the black hole gravity slow time (or the other way around) relative to us, what would be the speed from our point of view if we don’t use red or blue shift?

    Heres my expectation of some of the physics at play:..... "These collisions pump kinetic energy into the cluster, causing the cluster to expand or to halt contraction, this is called binary-burning. The interactions between binaries and star acts as a heating source which increases the total pressure of the cluster counteracting gravitational collapse". ....source: NASA ....globular clusters

    Couldnt this explain how black holes got so large, collisions of stars that were too close, until they reach a large enough object to collapse into stellar mass black holes themselves. Eventually combining with the central.
    Regardless this is neat, could we perhaps see what the inner core of a star realllly looks like? Because we can crunch the numbers but like Earths core we dont truly know.

  • @MatthewSuffidy
    @MatthewSuffidy Před měsícem

    Maybe the 2 things you need to know about that area are 1) Stars that get too close to the Black Hole are likely damaged 2) Solar systems in the area have a high probability of being destroyed due to random collision.

    Hmmm. Wonder what kind of elemental composition that region of space would have? Surely slamming together stars at 5% the speed of light would cause elements to fuse differently than a more traditional supernova….

  • @carried9130

    I have what may be a silly question, but I'm not a scientist. How can stars merge? I mean- it sounds like a gentle event rather than a violent one. As I understand it, stars that are close enough and whose orbits decay orbit closer and faster until they collide. The animation at 4:46 represents a touching binary...how is that even possible that the stars' upper layers are touching co-mingling plasma but they remain otherwise intact? Is it that the cores need to collide rather than the upper layers? And if so, how do some stars merge this way rather than be destroyed by the collision?
    Also, does anyone know the distances involved with the stars around Sagittarius A* ? I know the center 25K +/- light years away but I'm having trouble trying to visualize the distances between the stars from each other as wdll as the black hole. The speeds are amazing...it's one of the many things I wish we had the technology to clearly see.

      The kinematic time dilation of stars traveling at 10% light-speed is only 0.5%. (For comparison the time dilation at 90% light-speed is 7 i.e. for every day on a spacecraft going 90%c then 7 days would pass in Earth.)

    So if collisions are so common that there are many 8+ solar mass stars that live 1 million years and then go supernova......where are all the resulting nebulae?

    • @stargazer5784
      @stargazer5784 Před měsícem

      Nebulae can't remain 'cohesive' or stay bound to the star in such an environment as the star's velocity is far too high for the very tenuous nebula to 'keep up' Also, a nebula's appearance is governed by several factors, two of which are expansion velocity and the gravitational force pulling back on the expanding cloud. Sag A* is the 800 lb. gorilla in the room.

    Nope, its the gravity from dark matter in space surrounding the black hole, counter acting the gravity from the G-star keeping it together. Thats why as it get close to black hole, its the concentrated dark matter in space pulling out on the star which , causes it to start to fall apart, as it moves futher away from black hole, and the amount of dark matter in space is reduced , it comes back together, that why tales follow behind not toward black hole, its the gravity from dark matter in space pulling them apart.

    When stars go around the black hole and we have photos of it that have been turned into an animation, why then do we not see then get distorted when getting close or go behind the black hole as we see in simulations, why can't we observe any gravitational lensing from this black hole?
