NASA reveals the disturbing and mysterious sound emitted by a black hole

On Sunday, NASA posted on Twitter the sound from a black hole located 250 million light-years from Earth. If the recording was taken in 2003, it would only have become visible to the human ear.

After the galactic images taken by the James Webb Telescope, after broadcasting a dazzling snapshot of Jupiter, after seeing a dying star or an image of a black hole, and during NASA’s connection with its next project, the US Agency has expanded the list of recent successes in space research.

The foundation has already published, Sunday, on Twitter, the sound emitted by the black hole. Noises, as wonderful as they are sad, you can hear them below.

The intriguing melody comes from the immediate environment of a black hole located at the heart of the Perseus or Perseus galaxy according to the Anglo-Saxon spelling, or 250 million light-years from our Earth, As the site notes here Motherboard.

Participation allows NASA to identify i-points and dispel the prevailing notion that space is doomed to silence. NASA already has the nuances:

“The fallacy that there is no sound in space stems from the fact that space is mostly a vacuum – which gives sound waves no way to propagate. (But) a group of galaxies contains so much gas that we could pick up a real sound.”

To be honest, the set was done a while ago. More precisely, it was engraved by NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory in 2003. Problem: It was not audible to ordinary humans yet. “In this new Perseus sound system, sound waves previously identified by astronomers are now audible for the first time,” the agency notes.

In detail, NASA carried out work to amplify their frequencies, raising them several “quadrillions of times”, that is, millions of times. An increase in its range and size allows us today to finally hear this song of the universe.
