Explanation: If one black hole looks strange, what about two? Light rays from accretion disks around a pair of orbiting supermassive black holes make their way through the warped space-time produced by extreme gravity in this detailed computer visualization. The simulated accretion disks have been given different false color schemes, red for the disk surrounding a 200-million-solar-mass black hole, and blue for the disk surrounding a 100-million-solar-mass black hole. For these masses, though, both accretion disks would actually emit most of their light in the ultraviolet. The video allows us to see both sides of each black hole at the same time. Red and blue light originating from both black holes can be seen in the innermost ring of light, called the photon sphere, near their event horizons. In the past decade, gravitational waves from black hole collisions have actually been detected, although the coalescence of supermassive black holes remains undiscovered.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Binary?
What are its pronouns?.......................
LOL!! The still image for the YouTube video looks like Trump’s profile (the swept hair), just darker orange than he’s ever dreamed of.

Stupid, Joke
OJ 287 is a supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) 4 billion light-years from Earth. They have produced quasi-periodic optical outbursts going back approximately 120 years since at least 1887. The intrinsic brightness of the flashes corresponds to over a trillion times the Sun’s luminosity, greater than the entire Milky Way galaxy’s light output. Only recently have the outbursts been predicted in advance.
Binary Black Holes are weird enough. I’d hate to think what a Nonbinary Black Hole would be like.
Just imagine if one of them suddenly declared “I identify as non-binary!”
Music sounds like Trentemoller.. π
Itβs too bad Einstein or Stephen Hawking arenβt around to comment on the video, it would be fascinating to hear what they might have to say.
