When an unmovable object meets an unstoppable force, fireworks result and a star is destroyed…
Star Destroyed by Black Hole Completely Spaghettified .
ESO has spotted a star ‘spaghettified’ by a vast black hole in an astronomy first. Incredible images of a star being torn apart and turned into long spaghetti strands are truly amazing to behold.
Strands of energy, light and mass are torn from the sun in a process coined as ‘spaghettified’. These ESO images provide some of the best new details on the process of black holes consuming the mass of a star and the interactions as it happens.
It is not a fast process, but it is an enormous transfer of energy and provides some of the most amazing fireworks the universe has to offer. Watch ESO imagery: Star Destroyed by Black Hole.
