Scientists have discovered the longest pair of jets streaming from a black hole in a distant galaxy. The jets shooting hot plasma are the largest ever spotted – about as long as 140 Milky Way galaxies lined up end-to-end.

Scientists find biggest black hole jets ever –they are bigger than you can imagine

NEW YORK (AP) — Scientists have discovered the longest pair of jets streaming from a black hole in a distant galaxy. The jets shooting hot plasma are the largest ever spotted – about as long as 140 Milky Way galaxies lined up end-to-end. “This one has managed to reach a size that’s so big,” said […]

Scientists detect longest pair of jets streaming from a supermassive black hole 

Two mighty beams of energy have been detected shooting in opposite directions from a supermassive black hole inside a distant galaxy - the largest such jets ever spotted, extending about 140 times the diameter of our vast Milky Way galaxy. The black hole resides at the heart of a galaxy about 7.5 billion light-years from Earth. A light-year is the distance light travels in a year, 5.9 trillion miles (9.5 trillion km). Because of the time it take…

Black hole unleashes record-setting energetic jets

“The dimensions are gigantic”, sums up Gabriela Calistro Rivera, a 34-year-old Peruvian astronomer who currently works at the German Space Agency, in amazement. Together with colleagues from Europe and the United States, Calistro today announces the discovery of the largest jets ever observed in the universe. They are produced by Porphyrion, a previously unknown supermassive black hole that spits out two beams in opposite directions, and which t…

Found Porphyrion, the black hole that spews out the largest jets in the universe

An international team of astronomers discovered a pair of massive black hole jets and gave it the nickname Poryphiron after the Greek mythological clock.  These rays, the largest ever observed, span a total of 23 million light-years and their energy production is equivalent to several trillion Suns. Rays are powerful streams of energy and particles ejected from a black hole.

Egy nemzetközi csillagászcsapat egy hatalmas fekete lyuk  sugár párt fedezett fel és görög mitológiai órás után a Poryphiron becenevet adták neki.  Ezek a valaha megfigyelt legnagyobb sugarak 23 millió fényévet ívelnek át teljes és erergiatermelésük több trillió Nappal ekvivalens. A sugarak erőteljes energiaáramlatok és egy fekete lyukból kilövellő részecskék.

The largest black hole jet pair ever discovered in the distant Universe

Astronomers have spotted the biggest pair of black hole jets ever seen, spanning 23 million light-years in total length. That's equivalent to lining up 140 Milky Way galaxies back to back.

The scale is enormous: a black hole is hurling jets of matter into space over a distance ten times that of the Milky Way and the nearest galaxy. The discovery could help solve a cosmic mystery.

Das Ausmaß ist gewaltig: Über die zehnfache Distanz zwischen Milchstraße und der nächstgelegenen Galaxie schleudert ein schwarzes Loch Materiestrahlen ins All. Die Entdeckung könnte helfen, ein kosmisches Rätsel zu lösen.

Over 23 million light years into space: Gigantic jets of matter discovered from a black hole

This dimension is unimaginable: 23 million light years away, a black hole throws jets of matter out into space. The previous record length is 16 million light years. The new discovery could help solve a cosmic mystery.

Diese Dimension ist unvorstellbar: 23 Millionen Lichtjahre weit schleudert ein Schwarzes Loch Materiestrahlen ins All hinaus. Die bisherige Rekordlänge liegt bei 16 Millionen Lichtjahren. Die neue Entdeckung könnte helfen, ein kosmisches Rätsel zu lösen.
