Energy-releasing black hole
Energy-releasing black hole. Computer artwork of the energy-releasing black hole (upper left) in galaxy MCG -6-30-15. The energy around this black hole was measured by astronomers, using ESAs XM Newton X-ray observatory. It was found to be greater than expected. The extra energy is thought to be rotational energy extracted when the black holes spin is slowed by the twisting of magnetic field lines close to its border (event horizon). The gravity in this region is strong enough to twist the fabric of space-time, resulting in the tightening of the magnetic field lines that slows the spin of the hole. The energy released by the slowed hole heats surrounding gas

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an energy-releasing black hole, a mesmerizing phenomenon captured through computer artwork. Located in the galaxy MCG -6-30-15, this black hole has astounded astronomers with its extraordinary energy levels, surpassing their initial expectations. The image was obtained using the European Space Agency's XM Newton X-ray observatory. The additional energy emitted by this black hole is believed to originate from rotational energy extraction. As the twisting of magnetic field lines near its event horizon slows down the spin of the black hole, it releases tremendous amounts of energy. The gravitational forces within this region are so intense that they twist and tighten the fabric of space-time, resulting in a captivating display of glowing magnetic field lines. The released energy heats up and illuminates the surrounding gas, creating a luminous spectacle that can be observed in this stunning illustration. This print serves as a reminder of both the immense power and intricate dynamics at play within our universe. Through advancements in astrophysics and satellite technology such as ESA's XM Newton mission, scientists continue to unravel the mysteries surrounding these enigmatic cosmic entities. This image not only captures our imagination but also represents humanity's ongoing quest to understand and explore the vast wonders of outer space.
