![]() ![]() Nobel Prize in Physics awarded for black hole discoveries that revealed the 'darkest secrets of the universe' From left: Roger Penrose, Andrea Ghez and Reinhard Genzel. This year's Nobel Prize in Physics winners. The 2020 Nobel Prize in physics was awarded to scientists Roger Penrose, Reinhard Genzel and Andrea Ghez for their discoveries about black holes, including evidence shared by Ghez and Genzel about the mass of the object at the center of the Milky Way. Previously, scientists observed stars orbiting some invisible, massive object at the galactic center. It has taken five years for astronomers to capture and confirm this image and discovery. The results of this groundbreaking discovery were published Thursday in a special issue of The Astrophysical Journal Letters. “These unprecedented observations have greatly improved our understanding of what happens at the very (center) of our galaxy, and offer new insights on how these giant black holes interact with their surroundings.” “We were stunned by how well the size of the ring agreed with predictions from Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity,” said EHT project scientist Geoffrey Bower from the Institute of Astronomy and Astrophysics, Academia Sinica, Taipei, in a statement. At this close range, the black hole accelerates matter to close to the speed of light and bends the paths of photons in the warped (space-time).” “With the (Event Horizon Telescope or EHT) image, we have zoomed in a thousand times closer than these orbits, where the gravity grows a million times stronger. “For decades, astronomers have wondered what lies at the heart of our galaxy, pulling stars into tight orbits through its immense gravity,” Michael Johnson, astrophysicist at the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian, said in a statement. Astronomers said the black hole is 4 million times more massive than our sun. It’s the first direct observation confirming the presence of the black hole, known as Sagittarius A*, as the beating heart of the Milky Way.īlack holes don’t emit light, but the image shows the shadow of the black hole surrounded by a bright ring, which is light bent by the gravity of the black hole. ![]() Earth-chan tries to get the attention of her crush, Sun-kun - the head of their group, whilst a boy from the junior class, Moon-kun, has a crush on her.Īs shown above, the book holds some differences from the accepted norms of the internet meme world, namely that the four characters - Sun, Moon, Mars, and Uranus - are depicted as boys instead of girls.For the first time, astronomers have captured an image of the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy. Her friends Venus and Mars try to find a solution to the problem. Earth is the only student to bear parasitic humans in her hair, hence, is eyed with scorn by her classmates. ![]() The book tells the story of Earth-chan and other planets residing in the Planetarium College. The book was inspired by the internet meme and teaches young readers the importance of climate change issues. Why they all wear NASA t-shirt?Įarth-chan is the main protagonist of a children's fantasy book Earth-chan and Friends by Tamuna Tsertsvadze, found on. When earth-chan is old then why she have high school does that means earth-chan is teenage and minor and 16 year old? And also that's not earth-chan because she doesn't have clouds on her hair. When she's not in her uniform, she wears a white t-shirt with NASA logo on her front middle shirt, and white sleeves but not long sleeves, green-indigo shorts, white socks, and white shoes, Earth-chan is not american, earth-chan is asian, her nationality is japanese. Her attire consists of a school uniform with a white shirt, purple galaxy tie, and skirt, as well as black thigh-high socks and shoes. Then is earth-chan flat or noĮarth-Chan has short blue hair with green and white continent shapes, and have white clouds, she has earth hair, and no, earth-chan has rocky planet hair because she earth, and have anime bangs, her right side bangs, her right bangs goes behind to her right ear, and her eyes are brown. However, if you call her flat, she'll become confused and mad. She is a very caring person and loves the humans with all her heart, despite the illness they've inflicted upon her. How old is earth-chan? Are Earth-chan and Venus-chan sisters?Įarth Chan is cute and silly. She is best friends with Moon Chan and other planets. Years have passed humans have developed technology that has aided in their survival, but at the cost of polluting her body, which can either be interpreted as having caused her to become gravely ill and even slowly dying, or as some weird hair nuisance that's more dangerous to itself than Earth. For millions of years, little people called humans have lived on Earth-Chan's hair. Earth-Chan is the personified human girl version of Earth. ![]()
