Black hole event horizons are real, new evidence suggests
- Astronomers have shown that matter likely disappears after entering a black hole, refuting an alternate theory that matter is destroyed by colliding into a hard surface in space.
- It’s a big deal because humanity hardly understands what black holes really are. Hollywood has incorrectly envisioned them as “cosmic vacuums” or separate time-traveling dimensions, and they’re still a mystery to the fleets of scientific labs studying them.
- As it stands, two prominent theories describe what happens to stars in space. One is the “event horizon” theory, which argues that matter essentially gets sucked up into black holes and then vanishes.
- Event horizons are basically a boundary around a black hole that is literally inescapable. Their force of gravity is so strong that nothing — including light — can escape it. Read more (5/31/17)

Scientists report the first scientific results from NASA’s Juno mission, now in orbit around Jupiter.
This week, a suite of 46 separate scientific papers describe different aspects of the giant planet Jupiter, from its massive polar cyclones, to its complex magnetic field, to its unique radiation environment. The papers mark the first full scientific results from NASA’s Juno mission, which arrived in orbit around Jupiter last summer. Later this July, the craft is slated to overfly the planet’s Great Red Spot, bringing back still more data. Juno program scientist Jared Espley and Juno radiation monitoring investigation lead Heidi Becker join Ira to sum up some of the Jovian surprises, as well as give a preview of what still lies ahead for the Juno mission. Listen here to learn more.

Had quite a different color scheme in mind when I first started drawing it, but changed it during the coloring phase. =v=; something that happens quite a lot actually…

In my opinion, one of the best things humanity has captured on video. Done in 1979 by Voyager 1 as it approached Jupiter.
Orphic Hymn 16 to Hera (Greek hymns C3rd B.C. to 2nd A.D.) :
“O royal Hera, of majestic mien, aerial-formed, divine, Zeus’ blessed queen, throned in the bosom of cerulean air, the race of mortals is thy constant care. The cooling gales they power alone inspires, which nourish life, which every life desires. Mother of showers and winds, from thee alone, producing all things, mortal life is known: all natures share thy temperament divine, and universal sway alone is thine, with sounding blasts of wind, the swelling sea and rolling rivers roar when shook by thee. Come, blessed Goddess, famed almighty queen, with aspect kind, rejoicing and serene.”
