Scientists recorded a black hole EATING a star, and you can actually hear it. This isn’t a simulation. It’s real data from MIT converted into sound waves. But how is that even possible when space is a vacuum? In this video, we break down how astronomers turned X-ray light echoes into audible sound, what those haunting tones actually reveal about black hole physics, and how MIT’s “Reverberation Machine” just discovered 8 NEW echoing black holes in our galaxy.

Are u AI?
Let’s use our brains on this one twin
When your interpreting data into sound, there are choices to make. “Flushing toilet” was a choice.
Proximity and size determine what and at what speed Black Holes take in other objects. They do not “get hungry”.
Dawg, the first confirmed black hole was found eating its binary star partner 😭, However very interesting video, new subscriber! 👍
Hey, glad to hear that. Welcome! 🙏
Wow
“Extreme Kerr” means the black hole, or the spacetime around it, is spinning fast, right? I don’t exactly understand which data is turned into audible sound (x-ray intensity => volume, frequency to sound frequency?). But fascinating if this can help to map tiny objects, no bigger than a city (stellar black holes) at 1000s of lightyears distance.
