Buonanno (Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics)/Simulating eXtreme Spacetimes project; Scientific Visualisation: T. Dietrich (Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics)/R. Haas (NCSA)] Gravitational waves, basically ripples in space and time, have been sought after […] From NASA: “Chandra observations of the Perseus and Virgo galaxy clusters suggest turbulence may be preventing hot gas there from cooling, addressing a long-standing question of galaxy clusters do not form large numbers of stars.” Image Credit: NASA/CXC/Stanford/I. Zhuravleva et al This week, NASA announced that the Chandra X-ray Observatory, now in its 15th […] [youtube_video]http://youtu.be/6qr_0K7UPas[/youtube_video] Video courtesy of NASA In an effort to understand how black holes shape the evolution of galaxies, astronomers spent eight months creating a series of time-lapse movies from 400 observations made by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. The movies, taken from observations conducted over a 13-year period from 1995-2008, show a […] |
