The world’s first visible supermassive black hole, a gamma-ray emission event, was captured in a stunningangled'{six-mile-year} journey over eight-and a half million years between two galaxies, as observed by the James Webb Space Telescope. This discovery, known as “Closed Call,” provides unique insights into the cosmic phenomenon that has defied contemporary comprehension. The pair of objects, identified by the name “Infinity,” had formed by the merging of three supermassive black holes within their respective galaxies, with one glowing visibly from the collision’s center. This rare event would be of immense significance to astronomers studying the origins and evolution of black holes.
In a groundbreaking discovery from Yale University, astrophysicists have identified the three supermassive black holes within the “Infinity” galaxy. The structure of the galaxy, with its dramatic “figure-eight” shape, symbolizes the interplay between gravitational forces during the merging of the three black holes. The team explained, “We detected the three bodies as the stars began to loop around them before two of them collided.” This movement back and forth in space suggests the formation of a cosmic steam engine, powered by the collisions of massive black holes. However, this finding defies prior predictions, as no black hole has been discovered yet.
While the “Closed Call” event is fascinating, it hasn’t yet been fully mapped out, raising questions about the origin of such extreme cosmic events. The lack of existing data from nearby galaxies has left scientists enigmatic, as no one has yet identified and created supermassive black holes. Despite the challenges, the discovery offers insights into the extreme conditions required for such events to occur—a window into the very beginnings of the universe.
The theories of black hole formation have long been a focal point for researchers. The “light seeds” theory, often contended by NASA’s NASAT, posits that smaller black holes form when massive stars collapse to create events known as supernovas. These smaller black holes can then merge, forming larger ones. Yet, this theory has been largely abandoned by modern studies, as it predicts supermassive black holes forming too early for the long-term merging needed to create the black holes we observe today. In contrast, the “heavy seeds” theory proposes that black holes form in much earlier times through the gravitational collapse of gas clouds, particularly in extreme cosmic environments. If this were true, the “Infinity” galaxy’s unique shape could explain how the black holes collided and formed in a manner that defies prior expectations.
This “Harry” galaxy, associated with the “figure-eight” shape, is at the forefront of a new generation of scientific investigations aimed at unraveling the mystery of supermassive black hole formation. Ongoing research, supported by teams from the função de estrelas
