This simulation shows a black hole image in total intensity (or ‘normal’ light, left) and in circular polarization (right). The blue and red colors of the circular polarization movie correspond to light rotating clockwise and counterclockwise, respectively. Credit: Angelo Ricarte

In this version, the simulation frames are blurred to represent the limited resolution of the EHT, so it cannot resolve all details in the images. The EHT's resolution is set by its observing frequency and the diameter of the Earth-sized "mirror". Credit: Angelo Ricarte

This animation shows Faraday Conversion, occurring when linearly polarized light passes through a magnetized plasma, which "converts" some of the linear to circular polarization. This effect produces nearly all of the circular polarization around M87*. Credit: Ioannis Myserlis

Immensely gratifying detail

This simulation of two supermassive black holes, approximately 30 million kilometers apart, orbits every 46 minutes. The simulation shows how the black holes distort the background stars and trap light, creating black hole silhouettes.

🇷🇺🎻 It is never boring in Moscow Metro! Did you know that the Moscow Metro has two voices — male and female? The male voice is used to announce trains heading toward the city center, while the female voice is used for trains traveling outward In practice, this usually corresponds to clockwise and counterclockwise directions on circular lines

As gravity distorts our view… This simulation shows how the extreme gravity of two orbiting black holes bends and redirects light emanating from the chaotic hot gas surrounding each one. As they pass in front of one another, light weaves through the fabric of space and time.

The Core military fuel tanker acts as the vital lifeblood of the fleet, ensuring that the heavy hitters of the Core Navy never run dry during long duration missions or high intensity blockades. This specialized vessel is defined by its massive, elongated pylon structure, which is finished in a rugged grey and light blue industrial plating. Its most critical feature is the trio of three hundred and sixty degree fuel ports located along the hull. These allow it to dock and resupply two Olten class light cruisers and a corvette simultaneously. Visual records show that these ports are protected by heavy circular shutters, which are designed to maintain a perfect seal even in the vacuum of deep space.

7. Modern Light Bulbs Are Poisoning Your Sleep LED and fluorescent bulbs only give narrow spectrum light. For the first time in human history, we're getting blue light without red light. This is destroying your melatonin production and circadian rhythm.

Can I get your guys' feedback on this? I'm working on creating a fake shadow effect under Lina, so look underneath her during this clip. It's made up of two parts, a circular shadow and a light, transparent and rotating ring. Just need to know if its obnoxious lol

THE CONTRASTING EFFECTS OF BLUE AND RED/NIR LIGHT ON THE MITOCHONDRIA. - Recent research published this year in Nature: Scientific Reports demonstrates the effects that light in the built environment has on human health. Our modern build environment is dominated by short-wavelength light from LEDs and fluorescent lighting. This can have deleterious effects on the mitochondria. Adding to this effect is the lack of long-wavelength light from sources like the sun and incandescent lighting bulbs. These long light wavelengths have a beneficial effect on mitochondria function and overall human health. The lack of them in our modern built environment, seems to be impacting public health in a delirious fashion. Two recent papers to read: 1. 2.
