Though scientists had theorized they could image black holes by capturing their silhouettes against their glowing surroundings, the ability to image an object so distant still eluded them. A team formed to take on the challenge, creating a network of telescopes known as the Event Horizon Telescope, or the EHT. They set out to capture an image of a ...
Learning about mysterious structures in the universe provides insight into physics and allows us to test observation methods and theories, such as Einstein’s theory of general relativity. Massive objects deform spacetime in their vicinity, and although the theory of general relativity has directly been proven accurate for smaller-mass objects, such...
Capture your students’ enthusiasm about black holes by challenging them to solve these standards-aligned math problems. Model black-hole interaction with this NGSS-aligned lesson: 1. Students develop a model to represent gravitational waves and their propagation through spacetime. Grades 6-8 Time30 mins - 1 hr
Students will make observations of two containers and identify differences in content, justify their claims and make comparisons to dark matter observations. Grades 6-12 Time< 30 mins- 60 min
May 8, 2024 · NASA’s supercomputer has produced cutting-edge visualizations that allow viewers to plunge into the event horizon — the point at which a black hole’s gravitational pull becomes irresistible. The...
