Merged black holes
Merged black holes. Image 2 of 2. Supercomputer simulation of two non-spinning black holes (brown disc at centre) that have merged together. According to Einsteins theory of general relativity, the merger of two massive objects causes ripples (orange lines) in space-time. These ripples, known as gravitational waves travel at the speed of light but have not been observed directly. A black hole is formed when the core of a star collapses under its own weight, increasing its gravitational field to the point where nothing can escape, not even light. Black hole mergers are the most powerful events in the universe, releasing more energy than all of the stars in the universe combined. This simulation was created in 2006 on the NASA Columbia supercomputer in California, USA

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing supercomputer simulation of two non-spinning black holes merging together. At the center, a brown disc represents the combined mass of these celestial giants. According to Einstein's theory of general relativity, this merger generates awe-inspiring ripples in space-time depicted by vibrant orange lines. Gravitational waves, which are created as a result of this cosmic dance, travel at the speed of light but have yet to be directly observed. Black holes form when massive stars collapse under their own weight, creating an intense gravitational field from which nothing can escape – not even light itself. Black hole mergers stand as some of the most powerful events in our universe, releasing more energy than all the stars combined. This remarkable simulation was crafted in 2006 using NASA's Columbia supercomputer located in California's Ames Research Centre. The image evokes wonder and curiosity about our understanding of physics and cosmology. It invites us to contemplate the mysteries hidden within our vast cosmos – from stellar deaths to colliding binary systems. As we explore these peculiar phenomena through visualizations like this one, we delve deeper into unraveling the secrets held within the fourth dimension.
