NASA just saw something come out of a black hole for the first time ever

You don’t have to know a whole lot about science to know that black holes typically suck things in, not spew things out. But NASA just spotted something mighty strange at the supermassive black hole Markarian 335.

Two of NASA’s space telescopes, including the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR), miraculously observed a black hole’s corona “launched” away from the supermassive black hole. Then a massive pulse of X-ray energy spewed out. So, what exactly happened? That’s what scientists are trying to figure out now.

“This is the first time we have been able to link the launching of the corona to a flare,” Dan Wilkins, of Saint Mary’s University, said. “This will help us understand how supermassive black holes power some of the brightest objects in the universe.”

NuSTAR’s principal investigator, Fiona Harrison, noted that the nature of the energetic source is “mysterious,” but added that the ability to actually record the event should provide some clues about the black hole’s size and structure, along with (hopefully) some fresh intel on how black holes function. Luckily for us, this black hole is still 324 million light-years away.

So, no matter what strange things it’s doing, it shouldn’t have any effect on our corner of the universe.

It’s not really something to freak out about... Steven Hawking proved it some time ago, and he’s been giving lectures about it. I heard that lecture :)

It is a pet peeve of mine when people refer to any animated film as Disney. And by “pet peeve” I mean it makes me want to punch them in the face.

Such a preposterous accusation!

Yuuri: You’re so dramatic!

Victor, with a rose between his lips, throwing glitter around, dressed in evening wear during the day, draping himself across a piano: I have no idea what you’re talking about.

[manhattanvamp-deactivated201812]

can we talk about this episode 10 scene for a hot second

You know, the one where Victor announces his and Yuuri’s engagement? The one that shattered us all into ecstatic little pieces and then brought us back to life? That one

Okay so, the first time I watched this scene and I started to hear the angry guitar music in the background and see the other competitor’s less-than-enthusiastic faces, my heart sank. 

I was like, okay, here’s where the homophobia comes in, I knew this utopia (lol) couldn’t last, now they’re going to start revealing their inner asshats. Buuuuut

can we talk about the fact that these sweet amazing friends aren’t actually about to reveal their homophobic tendencies? Instead the thing they get pissed about is Victor claiming that Yuuri’s taking home the gold. Completely bypassing the thing that most people would assume they’d freak out over; no, instead they just accept that as a fact of life as they should and the thing they get pissed about is the only thing they SHOULD be pissed about. This is the best bait and switch I’ve ever experienced oh my god

I love this show, I love these supportive cinnamon roll friends, I love this healthy competitive spirit and most of all I love the fact that nobody treats this queer relationship as anything abnormal. Say what you want about media addressing issues LGBT people face…as a member of the LGBT community I just wanna say it’s nice to have a story that treats a gay couple just like any other hetero pairing. So much appreciation, thank you Kubo-sensei for creating this beautiful healthy angst-free haven of a show. GAHHH

Hahahaha! XD Hermione’s dress! The movie and the book finally found a compromise!!

[notquiteaghost]

so last night i was rereading house proud by astolat, aka the best harry potter fic there ever ever was, & then i started having Thoughts about hp wizards being the descendants of the fae cuz it just makes!! so much sense!!!

i am perpetually disappointed by so much of jkr’s world-building but this in particular bothers me so much cause like

she placed so much emphasis on blood lines & ~purity but the only ever used it as a shite allegory for racism

u know who gives a thousand shits about blood lines? the fae. u know who goes to great lengths to exist separately from humans? the fae. u know whose society is split into groups based on personality? the fae!!

the evolution of wizarding society makes so much more sense!! if u interpret them as being fae adapting to the changing world!!!

[notquiteaghost]

no wait actually im not done

like just consider, for a second, hogwarts houses being based on fae courts

they align so perfectly??

hufflepuff is the spring court (cheerful, optimistic, peaceful); gryffindor is the summer court (fierce, bold, energetic); ravenclaw is the autumn court (serene, reflective, wise); slytherin is the winter court (aloof, harsh, unforgiving)

and that makes hufflepuff & gryffindor seelie, and ravenclaw & slytherin unseelie

so wizarding society is slowly shifting from the formality of courts to something more casual as bloodlines are diluted & muggleborns become more common

& then hogwarts is founded and cements the shift by making it formal but not directly connected to the old ways

which explains why wizarding society places so much importance on the house system, and why personality/character factors into it, and why slytherin has such a pureblood bias because of COURSE the winter court is going to be pickiest about it’s members

i am never going back from this headcanon this is my life now

[notquiteaghost]

OH SHIT Y’ALL QUIDDITCH IS TOTALLY THE WILD HUNT???

like what if it was literally originally the hunt. it gets more sport-like as bloodlines dilute & picks up more muggle elements as muggleborns increase but

originally, the snitch was a person & it was a hunt

cuz why else would catching the snitch end the game!!!

& over time the area hunts can pass through get smaller & smaller so they adapt, and the snitch becomes an enchanted object when wizards start becoming few enough killing each other for sport is a bit ridiculous, & muggleborns come along & suggest beaters and goals and a point system

but they never get rid of the snitch or catching it or that being The Goal because it feels right
