30 Minute Loop - Rotating Accretion flow Kerr Black Hole Simulation
103Black hole bends and lenses the light, forcing it to move on a curved trajectory. The bending and lensing allow us to see "behind" the black hole.
This system is simulated on a supercomputer. Analyzing the simulation we can create an image of what the black hole should look like as seen from Earth.
The Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration observed the supermassive black hole at the center of M87, finding the dark central shadow in accordance with General Relativity, further demonstrating the power of this 100-year-old theory.
The galaxy M87 is 55 million light-years away or 52x10²⁰ km
Its central black hole has a mass of 7.22 billion solar masses, or 1.4356x10³⁷ kg or 3.1651x10³⁷ lb
