🚨 SCIENTISTS MAY HAVE FINALLY SOLVED ONE OF THE BIGGEST UNSOLVED PROBLEMS IN BLACK HOLE PHYSICS. For years, astrophysicists have struggled with the “final parsec problem”: even after two supermassive black holes get relatively close, they struggle to shed enough angular momentum to merge within the age of the...

At the heart of our Milky Way lies Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole with a mass of about 4.3 million suns. Recent observations from the Event Horizon Telescope have revealed something remarkable: the magnetic fields surrounding it are not the turbulent, disordered chaos scientists once expected, but instead form a strong, coherent spiral structure.These organized, twisted magnetic fields thread through the swirling hot plasma near the event horizon, acting like invisible guides that regulate how matter flows inward. They help control the acceleration and heating of gas, determine the intensity of emitted radiation, and stabilize the chaotic environment just outside the point of no return.This discovery, achieved by imaging polarized light from the accretion disk, shows striking similarities to the magnetic geometry seen around the much larger black hole in M87—despite vast differences in size and activity level. It suggests that powerful, ordered magnetic fields are a universal feature of supermassive black holes, playing a central role in how they feed, influence their surroundings, and potentially launch jets.The findings deepen our understanding of extreme plasma physics under intense gravity, test general relativity in its strongest regime, and highlight the profound interplay between magnetic forces and spacetime itself. Even in our relatively quiet galactic center, these fields reveal a hidden capacity for dynamic, powerful behavior—reminding us that black holes are not just gravitational sinks, but complex engines shaped by electromagnetism on cosmic scales.Future observations promise even sharper views and time-lapse sequences, offering deeper insights into the fundamental processes driving the hearts of galaxies.

Kerr Black Hole – Rendered in Blender Here’s my latest creation: a fully realized Kerr (rotating) black hole, complete with its warped accretion disk, photon ring, and the eerie ergosphere where space itself is dragged along with the black hole’s spin. I modeled and animated this in Blender using physically based approaches to simulate gravitational lensing, Doppler shifting in the disk, and the characteristic asymmetry caused by frame-dragging. The result is a visually striking, scientifically inspired visualization of one of the most extreme objects in the universe. Key features you can see: Bright, warped accretion disk with temperature/color gradients The thin, bright photon ring where light orbits the black hole multiple times Gravitational lensing that distorts the background starfield The distinctive “squashed” appearance on one side due to extreme rotation Check out the animations in my previous posts to see it in motion — the way light bends and the disk appears to move is mesmerizing. Would love to hear what you think, or if you’d like me to describe any specific technical details of the setup! By Petrundiy2

SPACE JUST DROPPED THE ORIGIN STORY OF YOUR GOLD CHAIN Turns out the bling on your wrist might’ve come from a dead star explosion - yeah, not even kidding. Scientists now think that wild space objects called magnetars - basically neutron stars on steroids with crazy magnetic fields - might’ve burped out gold, platinum, and uranium during mega flares. One flare in 2004 was so intense it messed with Earth’s atmosphere from 30,000 light-years away. That's like someone sneezing in another galaxy and you still feeling it. The flare likely created a Mars-sized pile of heavy elements — a cosmic Black Friday, but for metals. So next time someone compliments your jewelry, feel free to say, “Thanks, it was forged in the fire of a dying star.” Source: Washington Post

In the summer of 2023, I cold emailed Jensen Huang and asked to capture a NeRF of him at SIGGRAPH. He responded in about an hour and said yes. A radiance field is, in the simplest terms, akin to a 3D photograph. A moment in time, so completely reconstructed that you can move through it and see it from angles the original cameras never occupied. NeRFs were the original method. Gaussian splatting, which debuted at that same SIGGRAPH, has since become the dominant form of radiance field. I called my late friend James, who told me we needed to begin practicing immediately. We ran capture after capture for weeks until we consistently got the capture time down to ~30 seconds with one camera. Later, in a hallway at the LA Convention Center during SIGGRAPH, I captured the portrait you're seeing now, a full 360° gaussian splat of Jensen, rendered here as a 2D flythrough. Afterward, I continued the conversation with him and members of his team to make the case for radiance fields as a foundational representation for imaging. To my surprise, they listened. Three years later, NVIDIA has several works, including NuRec, fVDB, 3DGRUT, and gsplat all utilizing radiance fields. The landscape has evolved enough that the reasoning is obvious. Gaussian splatting has begun to ship across some of the world’s largest industries, including autonomous vehicles, AEC, geospatial, media and entertainment, robotics, e-commerce, hospitality. It’s become clear that lifelike 3D is here to stay. And yet I think we will look back and be disappointed by how late we started taking 3D portraits of the people around us, just like how we have sparse 2D photos of our grandparents and great grandparents. We have billions of photographs of the people we know and love, but almost no radiance fields of them. I'll be returning to SIGGRAPH in LA where this was initially captured three years ago, with the landscape looking significantly different. Radiance fields are more under deployed than ever relative to what they can do. I'm excited for the future of imaging, and for 2D to transition into 3D. I have a few things up my sleeve that I think will make that case plainly.

🚨 THE SUN JUST PUNCHED EARTH IN THE MAGNETIC FACE - AND WE LOVED IT On November 11, the Sun fired off an X5.1 solar flare - the biggest of 2025 - and hurled a plasma freight train at Earth at 600+ km/s. Twenty-four hours later, it slammed into our magnetosphere like a cosmic battering ram. NASA’s model shows it perfectly: Earth, a tiny blue marble at the center… Red zones whipping past like solar shrapnel… Magnetic field lines bending, twisting, screaming under the impact. This is what a geomagnetic storm looks like when the universe decides to remind you who’s in charge. The fallout? Satellites jitter. GPS drifts. HF comms get scrambled. And the sky throws a rave - auroras blooming far south of where they have any business being. With the Sun climbing toward peak activity, this won’t be the last hit. Expect more storms, more skyfire, and at least one “Why is the aurora over Chicago?” moment before 2026 is done. Source: Black Hole

1/ A magnetic field thousands of times weaker than a fridge magnet can boost the energy output of your mitochondria by up to 40% — and cut their harmful byproducts at the same time. A new 2025 study. And the best explanation on offer is quantum. 🧵 2/ Beutner et al. exposed rat-heart mitochondria to a weak static field. In a narrow window, respiration jumped ~40%. Push the field higher and the effect vanished — a telltale "bell-shaped" response. The odd part: that field is far too weak to matter by classical rules. 3/ So how? The leading candidate is the radical pair mechanism — the same quantum spin chemistry thought to power bird navigation. A weak field doesn't force the reaction. It nudges a quantum coin-flip between electron spin states, and the chemistry amplifies the rest. 4/ It echoes something we've covered before: magnetic isotope effects shaping microtubule assembly. Different system, same underlying physics. Two windows onto how weak fields may tune the living cell. Full write-up:

So, let me get this straight SpaceWeatherNews . Earth’s magnetic field is weakening right now, and it’s happening faster than expected. When you look back, the record shows the field didn’t always drift slowly either, sometimes it collapsed and re organized and things got beyond chaotic. The Sun isn’t a campfire in the sky like we were taught, it behaves in cycles and it can get violent in ways we’re only starting to understand. Earth reacts electrically and magnetically, like a living system kinda like bieng plugged into the Sun. Ice cores, tree rings, and archaeological layers all show resets happening at the same times around the world. Not once, but repeatedly. It's a clear pattern. We have direct measurements showing Earth’s magnetic field has weakened significantly in just a couple of centuries, with anomalies growing and the poles accelerating in ways that match pre excursion behavior seen in the geological record. We have lava flows that lock in multiple magnetic directions in a single cooling event, proving the field can shift rapidly, not over slow timelines. We have ice cores and tree rings showing abrupt spikes in cosmic radiation markers like carbon 14 and beryllium 10 that appear globally and simultaneously, which only happens when shielding fails or solar input surges. We have sudden climate reversals, where temperatures jump or crash in decades. Something standard models still have a hard time to explain. And we have synchronized layers of environmental fails in human history. We have abandoned settlements, cultural collapses, and reset layers that line up with those same physical events. None of this is speculative on its own. This is not speculation or fake, these are connected, because we have the individual datasets, they have been peer reviewed, and is sitting in plain sight. Forget the aliens for a second because we have some preparing to do.

The human being is the keeper of Love and Reason in the Universe. Humanity’s highest dream lies not only in eternally preserving its own kind, but also in striving to maintain the Universe’s suitability for other intelligent beings — for the sake of elevating the cosmic tree of life. : The author casts humanity as the Universe’s sole keeper of Love and Reason, the only force capable of infusing cold cosmic matter with warmth and purpose. Our highest dream extends beyond mere self-preservation. It is to ensure the Universe remains hospitable not only for our own eternal continuance but for any other intelligent life that might arise. We are called to tend the cosmic tree of life, nurturing conditions that allow consciousness to bloom wherever it can. This responsibility is both humble and immense. We did not choose the role; it chose us. The same intellect that lets us grasp the stars now demands we safeguard the possibility of other minds grasping them too. To fail would be to let the Universe slip back into silence. To succeed is to make the cosmos a garden rather than a graveyard. Humanity’s greatness is measured not by how long we endure alone, but by how generously we prepare the ground for whatever comes after us. Love and Reason, carried in fragile bodies on a small planet, become the Universe’s quiet rebellion against indifference.

“I DON’T NEED NO MAN”-Black American women This mentality of not needing a man That has been said and installed In black girls/womens minds for decades now has plagued the community With single homes and boys that have to go to the army to learn discipline Do black women have a lot of good options in the black community dating wise? NO Because so many black men have been plagued with street nigga culture Which leads them to prison or death And so many can’t keep a decent job And provide well enough to get respect I LOVE ANGEL REESE BUT WHEN SHE SAYS THIS I FEEL LIKE IT’S MORE OF LIKE A REPETITIOUS QUOTE FROM SISTERS THAT GOES BACK FOR DECADES BECAUSE SO MANY SISTERS HAD TO DO IT BY THEMSELVES THAT THEY GOT USED TOO IT BUT THAT DON’T MEAN THAT WE ARE PRODUCING THE BEST NEVER GENERATION IF THEY ARE ALL COMING FROM BROKEN HOMES WHERE THE FATHERS ARE SEEN AS AFTER THOUGHTS INSTEAD OF MEN THAT ARE NEEDED IN THE HOME JUST AS MUCH AS THE MOTHERS TO PROVIDE THE KIDS WITH ADEQUATE DISCIPLINE AND OTHER SKILLS ESPECIALLY THE YOUNG MEN

When twin flames finally meet in this lifetime 🔥 In the midst of chaos, destruction, and raging infernos... two souls who were split from the same divine spark recognize each other instantly. No words needed. Just foreheads pressed together, eyes glowing with ancient recognition, bodies burning with the same eternal fire. This isn’t just love. This is a reunion of energies that have crossed galaxies and lifetimes searching for one another. One glance and the whole world could burn — yet in their presence, everything finally makes sense. They walk through the flames together, not because they’re immune to the heat, but because together they are the fire. Unstoppable. Magnetic. Sacred. Twin flame connections don’t come to comfort you — they come to awaken you, challenge you, and set your soul on fire so you can rise into your highest version. The push. The pull. The intensity. The undeniable knowing that this person is your mirror, your catalyst, your home. If you’re on this journey... the separations, the triggers, the magnetic pull you can’t explain — trust it. The universe is orchestrating your divine reunion in divine timing.

Here we go again… Christopher C. Cuomo’s comments in this video regarding Kamala Harris, where he demeaningly referred to her as “Black female Jesus” and condescendingly referred to Black people as “you people,” reflect a pattern of racist rhetoric by the former anchor fired by CNN. He previously made a claim about being “Black on the inside” and even equated the term “Fredo” with the N-word. His reckless banter showcases a disturbing ignorance of the weight that racial language carries in America. His attempt to diminish the significance of Black leadership by mocking Harris as though her rise to become the vice president and nomination for president are superficial phenomenoms, rather than the result of hard-earned success in a country built on systemic racial inequities, is unacceptable. His thoughtless comments perpetuate harmful stereotypes about Black leaders, dehumanize their achievements, and trivialize the faith and support the Black community places in its representatives. For Cuomo to reduce Kamala Harris’ historic role to a caricature demonstrates his continued lack of respect for the Black community and its struggles. It is this kind of casual racism, cloaked in so-called political commentary, that fans the flames of division and undermines the progress we are fighting for. We cannot allow prominent voices to diminish the significance of Black leadership, nor can we stay silent when racially insensitive rhetoric is used to belittle our community. Chris Cuomo needs to recognize the damage his words cause and issue a public apology, not only to Kamala Harris but to the Black community as a whole. There is no room for this kind of racism—overt or subtle—in public discourse. By the way Christopher C. Cuomo, Jesus was BLACK, so we don’t have to create a Black one like you all created a ficticious white one.

The Milky Way and Andromeda are currently separated by about 2.5 million light-years. Drawn together by gravity, Andromeda approaches us at roughly 110 km/s. Though this speed is immense, the vast cosmic distances mean the process will unfold slowly over billions of years. Recent studies using data from Hubble and Gaia suggest the long-predicted merger is not certain: there's roughly a 50% chance the galaxies will collide and merge within the next 10 billion years, with only a small probability of it beginning in the classic ~4–5 billion-year timeframe. As the galaxies interpenetrate, powerful gravitational tides would eject enormous streams of stars, gas, and dust—forming glowing tidal tails that trail across space like celestial ribbons. New star formation would flare in compressed gas clouds, lighting up the chaos with brilliant nebulae. Despite the dramatic term "collision," individual stars are so sparsely distributed that direct crashes would be exceedingly rare. Instead, gravity would gently reshuffle orbits: some systems flung to the outskirts, others spiraling toward a shared center. At the hearts of both galaxies lie supermassive black holes—ours at ~4 million solar masses, Andromeda's far larger. Over eons, they would inspiral and coalesce in a cataclysmic union, unleashing ripples of gravitational waves across the cosmos. In the end, the spirals we know would dissolve into a single, grand elliptical galaxy—a transformed beacon in the Local Group, born from one of the universe's most patient spectacles. 🎥 skywolf400

‡ Yet Another Dubious Stewards Decision There is a long-standing complaint relating to stewards decisions that is shared by virtually all horseplayers: they should be more consistent in their decision making. Such complaints are legitimate, and consistency should always be a goal, not only in the officiating of horse racing. But it seems to me that the problem illustrated by the DQ in Del Mar's 11th race on Saturday is, in some ways, even more frustrating. I am referring to what seems to be a far too common inability of stewards to watch replays carefully, and thoughtfully process what has been seen. While I credit Del Mar for having edited together all three views of the incident in the embedded clip, it would have been better if they had (also) slowed down the drone view, which, as is so often the case, appears to be the definitive view. I have extracted the salient drone view portion and zoomed in on the action, so that readers might more easily see the crucial incident that the stewards apparently failed to take into account. The dubious decision to DQ the winner (#3 red and white silks) was made on the basis that nearing the wire, it drifted out, and caused the eventual fourth-place finisher (#5 pink silks) to steady, possibly costing that one a better placing. But I would argue that a careful, and reasonably thoughtful viewing of the drone shot, clearly shows something different. Just before the incident referred to by the stewards, the #5 horse (pink silks) and #9 (yellow silks) made contact, and it was that contact which initially caused the former to steady. The winner did subsequently drift out, but that was incidental, and did not, at least on its own, cost the #5 a placing. In fact, that the two even came so close was arguably a direct result of the #5 briefly losing its hind-end as a result of the bumping with the #9 horse. Had it not been for that initial contact, causing the #5 to angle in towards the eventual winner, there almost certainly would not have been any meaningful loss of momentum. Parsing it even more finely, it appears, again from the drone shot, that the #9 was not at fault, and it was, ironically, the "victim" in the questionable eyes of the stewards (#5), which angled in and lost its hind-end as a result of that earlier contact. Given that the rider of #5 had understandably steadied more sharply after the initial, far more dangerous incident, the most important momentum loss had already occurred before the rider again steadied slightly, due to the winner drifting out. In summary, there were clearly two incidents which contributed to a loss of momentum on the part of the #5 horse. Equally clearly, it was the initial incident, not even mentioned by the stewards, that caused the greater loss of momentum. In my view, the incident that the stewards used to rationalize the DQ was trivial, relatively speaking, and given the broader context, there should not have been any change in the order of finish.

‡ Yet Another Dubious Stewards Decision There is a long-standing complaint relating to stewards decisions that is shared by virtually all horseplayers: they should be more consistent in their decision making. Such complaints are legitimate, and consistency should always be a goal, not only in the officiating of horse racing. But it seems to me that the problem illustrated by the DQ in Del Mar's 11th race on Saturday is, in some ways, even more frustrating.

Poor Baloch of Rich Balochistan. According to available data from 2020, more than 100 natural gas wells are operational in Balochistan’s Sui, Pirkoh, and Loti regions, collectively producing around 334 million cubic feet of gas every single day. This natural gas was first discovered in Sui, Dera Bugti, in 1952 a discovery that became the backbone of Pakistan’s energy supply. For decades, massive 36-inch pipelines have carried this gas nearly 800 kilometers away, fueling industries, cities, and households in Punjab and Karachi. Yet, in a cruel irony, the very land that gives birth to this energy remains deprived of it. The indigenous people of Sui, Pirkoh, Dera Bugti, Loti, and surrounding areas living within just one kilometer of these gas fields are still forced to live without gas even for basic cooking and baking needs. Flames burn in distant cities, while darkness and deprivation persist at the source. This is not a shortage of resources. It is a failure of justice.

When a spacecraft leaves Earth, it doesn’t just fire its engines and head straight to its destination. In many missions, especially those going beyond low Earth orbit, there’s a more subtle and elegant strategy at play, one that uses gravity itself as part of the navigation system. This is often called a gravity assist, or a slingshot maneuver. But in the case of missions like #Artemis II, what’s being used is a closely related idea known as a free-return trajectory. At first glance, it might sound simple: the spacecraft goes to the Moon, loops around it, and comes back. But the physics behind it is anything but simple. Instead of relying on continuous propulsion, the spacecraft follows a carefully calculated path through the gravitational field of the Earth–Moon system. It is launched with just the right speed and direction so that, as it approaches the Moon, the Moon’s gravity bends its trajectory. The spacecraft is effectively flung around the Moon, redirected onto a path that naturally brings it back toward Earth. No major engine burn is needed for the return. Small trajectory corrections may still be required, but gravity does the heavy lifting. That’s the key. This kind of trajectory is not just efficient, it’s also safe. If something goes wrong with the spacecraft’s engines or onboard systems, gravity itself ensures the return. It’s an inherent backup plan, built into the trajectory from the very beginning. The same fundamental idea appears in gravity assists used across the Solar System. When a spacecraft flies past a planet, it can gain or lose speed by exchanging momentum with that planet. From the spacecraft’s point of view, it’s as if it has been accelerated without using fuel. In reality, it has borrowed a tiny amount of orbital energy from the planet itself. That’s how missions like Voyager reached the outer planets, and how probes continue to explore regions far beyond what their onboard fuel alone would allow. But there’s an important distinction. An interplanetary gravity assist is typically used to change speed and direction, often increasing the spacecraft’s energy. A free-return trajectory, like the one used in Artemis II, is designed for something more specific: a path that naturally loops back to Earth without requiring additional propulsion. It’s less about gaining energy, and more about shaping a trajectory that guarantees a return. To understand why this works, it helps to stop thinking in straight lines. In space, motion follows curves defined by gravity. The spacecraft is constantly falling, first toward Earth, then toward the Moon, and then back toward Earth again. What looks like a loop is really a continuous free fall through a changing gravitational landscape. This way of navigating space reveals something deeper. We tend to think of engines as the drivers of motion, but once a spacecraft is on its way, gravity does most of the work. The art of spaceflight is not just about thrust. It’s about knowing when not to use it. #GoodLuck #Artemis NASA Artemis

I completed a 5km walk today alongside fellow Nigerian men in the UK, raising awareness for prostate cancer in the Black community as part of the March for Men Prostate Cancer UK It was truly inspiring to see so many Black men come out from all over the UK, standing together and taking their health seriously. This is exactly the kind of energy and unity our community needs. Prostate cancer is more common in Black men, especially over the age of 40, yet it’s still not talked about enough. Conversations like this can save lives, and we must continue to educate, support, and encourage one another. I’m also proud to share that over £500,000 was raised an incredible achievement that will go a long way in supporting the fight against prostate cancer. Today was more than just a walk, it was a powerful reminder that our health matters, and together, we can make a difference. #Marchformen

🚨 SCIENTISTS MAY HAVE FOUND A REAL “LOOPHOLE” FOR WARP DRIVES. And for the first time, the math may not completely break physics. For decades, warp drives were considered impossible because they seemed to require massive amounts of “exotic negative energy” that doesn’t exist in usable quantities. But new theoretical models suggest there may be ways to reshape spacetime using far less exotic energy or in some versions, almost none at all. Why this matters: • A warp drive doesn’t actually move the ship faster than light • It compresses spacetime in front of the craft and expands it behind • The ship stays inside a stable bubble while the universe itself moves around it • Einstein’s speed limit remains intact the ship never locally exceeds c The deeper implication is mind-bending: If spacetime can be engineered like this, distance itself becomes programmable. Interstellar travel would stop being an impossible energy problem… and turn into a geometry problem. The universe may not be blocking faster-than-light travel. We may simply be too primitive to shape spacetime correctly yet. What happens when humanity learns to engineer gravity itself? Follow for more frontier physics and reality-bending breakthroughs.

Good morning to everyone in Massachusetts who now sees that there is hope in our state. The Charlie Kirk Vigil at Boston Common last night brought together so many patriots, united in prayer, strength, and determination for change. Thank you to every single person who showed up. You reminded us that we are not alone. One of the most inspiring parts of the night was hearing from the young speakers who talked about the impact Charlie had on their lives and why they feel called to get involved. Their words were powerful and showed that the next generation is ready to carry this mission forward. But this is just the beginning. We need to take that same energy back to our towns, our schools, and our communities. Get involved, speak up, and be part of the movement for a better Massachusetts. This is exactly what Charlie would have wanted. Not just a moment of mourning, but a spark that ignites real action. Together, we can honor his legacy by standing up for our values and shaping the future of our state.

🚨 What If Your Entire Life… Is Just Code? In 2003, philosopher Nick Bostrom published a paper with a question so unsettling that it still echoes through science and philosophy today: What if our entire universe is actually a computer simulation? At first it sounds like science fiction. But the idea is surprisingly logical when you think about the direction technology is heading. Look at how far we have already come. Just a few decades ago, computers could barely display simple graphics. Today, video games create entire worlds filled with cities, forests, weather, and characters that react to our actions. Virtual reality can make our brains feel as if we are standing somewhere else entirely. Now imagine technology thousands—or even millions—of years in the future. A civilization that advanced might possess computers powerful enough to simulate entire planets… entire histories… even entire universes. Inside those simulations could exist conscious beings who believe their world is real. Beings just like us. Bostrom suggested something called “ancestor simulations.” The idea is simple but chilling. Advanced civilizations might run simulations of their past to study history or understand how their species evolved. These simulations would contain billions of simulated people living normal lives, completely unaware that their reality is artificial. If a single advanced civilization created thousands or millions of such simulations, then the number of simulated minds would become vastly greater than the number of real biological minds. And this leads to a disturbing possibility. Statistically speaking, a randomly existing mind would be far more likely to be inside a simulation than in the original reality. In other words… the odds might not be in our favor. Think about your daily life for a moment. The sky above you, the ground beneath your feet, every star in the night sky, every memory you have ever experienced—what if all of it is simply information being processed somewhere else? What if reality itself is being rendered like a giant cosmic video game? Some scientists have even wondered whether strange features of the universe could hint at something deeper. Why do the laws of physics follow precise mathematical rules? Why does the universe appear almost perfectly tuned for life? And why does space and time seem to have limits at the smallest measurable scales? To some thinkers, these questions sound eerily similar to the rules of a programmed system. Of course, none of this proves we live inside a simulation. Many scientists remain skeptical, arguing that simulating an entire universe would require unimaginable amounts of energy and computing power. Others point out that the idea may be impossible to test. But the mystery remains. If advanced civilizations somewhere in the cosmos eventually develop the ability to simulate conscious beings—and if they choose to run these simulations—then billions or trillions of simulated worlds could exist. And in a universe filled with simulations, the most unsettling question of all appears: How do we know ours is the original one? Right now, you are reading these words, feeling the world around you, believing this moment is real. But somewhere, far beyond our understanding, there might be a machine quietly running the code of an entire universe… including you.
