In March 2000, two astronomers made an extraordinary discovery, one that is set to overturn our understanding of how the universe formed. We're never going to see a time like this in astronomy again.
But we are just one in 125 billion galaxies of different shapes and sizes spinning through space. Yet scientists haven't been able to explain how a single one of these galaxies was created. Galaxy for
This ferocious heart of brilliant hot gas is called a quasar. Scientists thought this whirling mass might be caused by a giant black hole sucking up gas and stars, literally feeding on the center of a
When it's feeding, a giant black hole creates a bright burning gas disk around it and then for some reason, it stops feeding, leaving a dark, deadly core lurking menacingly in the center of the galaxy
Recently, some researchers in Australia were excited about messages from a distant galaxy. But it turns out that the signals were from a completely different source. The scientists at Parkes Observatory in Australia specialize in radio bursts- short
Former captain of the English national football team David Beckham is moving to Los Angeles this summer to play with the LA Galaxy team in the United States Major League Soccer league. As the biggest star ever to play in this league, the 31-year-old
This correlation is the most important thing we've learned about supermassive black hole so far. Astronomers are always looking for correlations. Whenever you find one that's really tight like this on
Scientists Observe Birth of Huge Galaxy Cluster For the first time ever, astronomers have observed the birth of a galaxy cluster, known as a protocluster. The event, billions of light-years away, could form one of the largest-known structures in toda
Here is a computer simulation. 这是计算机模拟。 And we need a way to simplify it. 我们需要简化它的方法。 Well, I like to think about this using an analogy. 我会用一个类比来理解。 If I want to understand the sinking of th
Here is an image. 这是一张照片。 Since galaxy clusters are representative slices of the universe, scaled-down versions. 因为星团可以看做是宇宙的缩小版。 They are mostly made up of dark matter, 它们也是大部分由暗物质构
It suggested a baffling paradox that quasars are really shining black holes, capable of emitting the energy of entire galaxies. But Lynden-Bell then went further. I predicted that there would be these massive objects found in the nearby galaxies. He
But that is not the only surprise. People began to realize that these tiny star-like things or they looked like stars are actually putting out as much energy as a hundred of galaxies. And they didnt look like a galaxy at all. The paradox was how some
Was there any connection between the two? What Magorian discovered was completed unexpected. The relationship that we find was essentially that the bigger the galaxy, the bigger the black hole. That's in its broad terms. If you want to be a bit more
Still, statistically the probability that there are other thinking beings out there is good. Nobody knows how many stars there are in the Milky Wayestimates range from 100 billion or so to perhaps 400 billionand the Milky Way is just one of 140 billi
Kepler Telescope's Planet-hunting Days End 开普勒望远镜危在旦夕 NASA is ending its attempts to restore the Kepler Space Telescope to full working order. The US space agency will now focus on analyzing the data collected over the past four y
Almost at once the Bogdanov paper excited debate among physicists as to whether it was twaddle, a work of genius, or a hoax. Scientifically, it's clearly more or less complete nonsense, Columbia University physicist Peter Woit told the New York Times
David Beckham is a one-man phenomenon. No modern soccer player has created such intense interest and fan loyalty, while at the same time seeing their image and every move end up in the tabloids. During his one-week tour in China, the Chinese Super Le
This uncertainty applies, incidentally, to relatively nearby things as much as to the distant edges of the universe. As Donald Goldsmith notes, when astronomers say that the galaxy M87 is 60 million light-years away, what they really mean (but do not
Combining Leavitt's cosmic yardstick with Vesto Slipher's handy red shifts, Edwin Hubble now began to measure selected points in space with a fresh eye. In 1923 he showed that a puff of distant gossamer in the Andromeda constellation known as M31 was
No. No, no, no. I-I think the cookie thing. 不,不是。我也觉得你是做饼干那种。 Action. 开始。 Welcome back. Our guest today is a returning fan favorite. 欢迎回来。今日的来宾曾来过,并广受观众喜欢: He puts th
