  • The distance of black holes from earth

    The distance to a black hole from Earth depends on which black hole you’re talking about. Here are the most well-known ones, with accurate and simple details: 1. šŸ•³ļø Sagittarius A* (The black hole at the center of our galaxy) 2. šŸ•³ļø M87* (The first black hole ever imaged) 3. šŸ•³ļø Closest Known Black Hole…

  • Time travel near a black hole is theoretically possible — but only in a specific sense:

    āœ… YES: Time Dilation (Forward Time Travel) šŸ”­ What happens: ā³ So if you: This is a kind of forward time travel — proven by both theory and small-scale experiments (like with atomic clocks in airplanes or satellites). āœ… This is real and possible (in theory), though we can’t yet travel near a black hole…

  • What is actual shape of Black Hole?

    The actual shape of a black hole depends on how you’re looking at it: šŸ”µ 1. Non-Rotating Black Hole (Schwarzschild Black Hole) šŸŒ€ 2. Rotating Black Hole (Kerr Black Hole) šŸ‘ļøā€šŸ—Øļø What We See (Shadow of a Black Hole) šŸ“· First Real Image (M87, 2019 – Event Horizon Telescope) Would you like a visual showing…

  • Do You Know Size Of the Universe ?

    🌌 1. Observable Universe (What We Can See) šŸ“ Diameter: About 93 billion light-years 🧠 Imagine: You’re looking at galaxies that are so far away, you’re seeing them as they were just after the Big Bang. 🌠 2. Entire Universe (Including Beyond What We Can See) We don’t know its true size. But most cosmologists…

  • šŸ”¦ Understanding Light, Gravitational Lensing & Dark Matter

    Most wonderful Properties of Light 🌈 1. Properties of Light Light is a form of energy that travels as an electromagnetic wave but also behaves like particles (photons). Here are its key properties: āœ” Speed āœ” Reflection āœ” Refraction āœ” Diffraction āœ” Interference āœ” Polarization āœ” Dispersion āœ” Absorption & Transmission āœ” Photoelectric Effect šŸ”„…

  • Gravitational Waves: Ripples in Spacetime

    Introduction Gravitational waves are ripples in the fabric of spacetime, predicted by Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity (1915) and first directly detected in 2015 by LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory). These waves are generated by the most violent cosmic events—merging black holes, neutron stars, and supernovae—and provide a new way to observe the universe. 1.…

  • Is Newton’s Law of Gravitation “False”? A Modern Perspective

    Newton’s law of universal gravitation (1687) was one of the most profound scientific breakthroughs in history, accurately describing: But in light of Einstein’s general relativity (1915), we now understand Newton’s law has fundamental limitations: Where Newton’s Law Fails The Mathematical Difference Newton (1687) Einstein (1915) F = G(m₁mā‚‚)/r² Gᵤᵄ = 8Ļ€Tᵤᵄ (field equations) Instantaneous action…

  • Einstein’s Law of Gravitation (General Relativity) – Simply Explained

    The Core Idea: Gravity = Curved Spacetime Einstein’s revolutionary insight (1915) was that gravity isn’t a force like Newton thought – it’s the curvature of spacetime itself caused by mass and energy. The Two Key Principles: The Einstein Field Equations (Simplified) The full mathematical form looks complex:Gμν = 8Ļ€G/c4 Tμν But here’s what it means…

  • String Theory: The Unfinished Symphony of Physics

    Introduction String theory is one of the most ambitious—and controversial—attempts to unify quantum mechanics and general relativity into a single “Theory of Everything.” Yet, after 50+ years of research, it remains a beautiful mystery, full of untested predictions and mathematical elegance. Here’s why string theory is still physics’ greatest unsolved puzzle: 1. The Core Idea:…

  • Black Holes and Quantum Physics: A Clash of Titans

    Introduction Black holes—cosmic monsters where gravity crushes matter into oblivion—challenge our understanding of physics. At their edges (event horizons) and cores (singularities), Einstein’s general relativity (governing gravity) collides with quantum mechanics (ruling the subatomic). This conflict hints at a deeper theory: quantum gravity. Here’s how black holes probe the quantum universe: 1. The Black Hole…
