The black holes shown, which range from 100,000 to more than 60 billion times our Sun’s mass, are scaled according to the sizes of their shadows – a circular zone about twice the size of their event horizons. Only one of these colossal objects resides in our own galaxy, and it lies 26,000 light-years away. Smaller black holes are shown in bluish colors because their gas is expected to be hotter than that orbiting larger ones. Scientists think all of these objects shine most intensely in ultraviolet light.

Yellow structures near the black holes illustrate the strong curvature of space-time in the region. Orange ripples represent distortions of space-time caused by the rapidly orbiting masses. These distortions spread out and weaken, ultimately becoming gravitational waves (purple). The merger timescale depends on the masses of the black holes. For a system containing black holes with about 30 times the sun’s mass, similar to the one detected by LIGO in 2015, the orbital period at the start of the movie is just 65 milliseconds, with the black holes moving at about 15 percent the speed of light. Space-time distortions radiate away orbital energy and cause the binary to contract quickly. As the two black holes near each other, they merge into a single black hole that settles into its \"ringdown\" phase, where the final gravitational waves are emitted. For the 2015 LIGO detection, these events played out in little more than a quarter of a second. This simulation was performed on the Pleiades supercomputer at NASA's Ames Research Center. At maximum resolution this visualization is 8192x8192 pixels in size.Credit: NASA/Bernard J.

The black hole’s extreme gravitational field redirects and distorts light coming from different parts of the disk, but exactly what we see depends on our viewing angle. The greatest distortion occurs when viewing the system nearly edgewise. As our viewpoint rotates around the black hole, we see different parts of the fast-moving gas in the accretion disk moving directly toward us. Due to a phenomenon called \"relativistic Doppler beaming,\" gas in the disk that's moving toward us makes that side of the disk appear brighter, the opposite side darker. This effect disappears when we're directly above or below the disk because, from that angle, none of the gas is moving directly toward us.When our viewpoint passes beneath the disk, it looks like the gas is moving in the opposite direction. This is no different that viewing a clock from behind, which would make it look like the hands are moving counter-clockwise.CORRECTION: In earlier versions of the 360-degree movies on this page, these important effects were not apparent. This was due to a minor mistake in orienting the camera relative to the disk.

Left: The galaxy’s central jets appear as they would if we viewed them both at the same angle. The black hole, embedded in a disk of dust and gas, launches a pair of particle jets traveling at nearly the speed of light. Scientists think gamma rays (magenta) detected by NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope originate from the base of these jets. As the jets collide with material surrounding the galaxy, they form identical lobes seen at radio wavelengths (orange). The jets experienced two distinct bouts of activity, which created the gap between the lobes and the black hole. Right: The galaxy appears in its actual orientation, with its jets tipped out of our line of sight by about 50 degrees.Credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center || TXS0128_Side-by-Side_FInal.jpg (7680x2160) [1.8 MB] || TXS0128_Side-by-Side_FInal_Half.jpg (3840x1080) [601.5 KB] || TXS0128_Side-by-Side_FInal_print.jpg (1024x288) [45.4 KB] || TXS0128_Side-by-Side_FInal.jpg.dzi (7680x2160) [178 bytes] || TXS0128_Side-by-Side_FInal.jpg_files (1x1) [4.0 KB] || ", "release_date": "2020-08-25T11:00:00-04:00", "update_date": "2023-05-03T13:44:44.310639-04:00", "main_image": { "id": 383215, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/vis/a010000/a013600/a013696/TXS0128_Illustration_perspective_FINAL_print.jpg", "filename": "TXS0128_Illustration_perspective_FINAL_print.jpg", "media_type": "Image", "alt_text": "An unlabeled illustration of galaxy TXS 0128+554 in its actual orientation.Credit: NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center", "width": 1024, "height": 576, "pixels": 589824 } } }, { "id": 412135, "type": "details_page", "extra_data": null, "instance": { "id": 13576, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/13576/", "page_type": "Produced Video", "title": "Hubble Finds Evidence of Mid-Sized Black Hole", "description": "Astronomers have identified a black hole of an elusive class known as “intermediate-mass,” which betrayed its existence by tearing apart a wayward star that passed too close.
