Simulation Shows Distortion Caused by Supermassive Black Holes

Two supermassive black holes, positioned approximately 30 million kilometers apart, were the focus of a recent simulation. With an orbital period of 46 minutes, the simulation aimed to showcase how these black holes affect their surroundings.

The simulation vividly demonstrated how the immense gravitational pull of the black holes distorts the starry background and captures light, resulting in the creation of striking silhouettes of the black holes. This visual representation offers valuable insights into the behavior and impact of these cosmic entities on the space around them.
