Out there in the galaxy is the m106 black hole. This massive spatial anomaly is bigger than anyone can comprehend, and it seems god is indeed playing dice with the universe. As the year rolled in the image of this supermassive black hole was busily spewing photons just like a smoking volcano. It seems that more telescopes like Nasa Spitzer Space Telescope, Herschel Space Observatory, and the Chandra X-ray Observatory are observing black hole activity than ever.
Activities from black holes like in the Messier 106 are found to be an engine of creation, that help in the formation of stars, as observed by Patrick Ogle an astrophysicist (author of the paper). The data was gleaned from the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center at the California Institute of Technology, where he works. Black holes do more than just consume matter on a grand scale as everyone knows, it also emits energy like a whale blowhole. When this happens, the gases needed to form proto-stars are pushed out and leaves that side of the galaxy very bare. Think of the m106 as the aborted of proto-stars, or sterilizers on a cosmic stage.
Scientists need to know what black holes are and how they work when in action. These gaps, in reality, are like vampires feeding on the gases that it can draw in. When the gas enters the event horizon or point 0 of the black hole, it goes down into it, and there is an ejection of energy that has yet to be examined closely. This is the reason why Messier 106 is the subject of interest and is visible using binoculars too.
The Spritzer infrared telescope revealed that hydrogen spouts where the mysterious emissions, from the black hole. This process created the warm halo of energized hydrogen gas as the black hole ejected the hydrogen each time it consumed gas. Also, these gases are so hot that it would vaporize any living creature of metal that it would come across. Plus, add up the immense shock waves that literally shatters the surrounding space. Data from Spitzer and Chandra showed more x-rays emitted as the spouts are creating. Without the shockwave, the analysis revealed that without the shockwaves, it would freeze any living thing or metal to less than absolute zero or call it the super-freeze.
Scientists are sure there is a close relationship between the heated cosmic gas and how the denser star-making hydrogen is present. It works by hot ejected gases form m106, which carries the shockwave to make contact with the hydrogen. When both the hydrogen and superhot cosmic gas get together, they explode and becomes infrared light that is seen by telescopes. The waste gas is then sent into the interior of the galaxy, what happens is anyone's best guess.
Regrettably, when hydrogen-rich gas is not present, scientists expect fewer stars are formed in the galaxy interior. It seems that m106's Black Hole is also an aborter of infant stars, playing dice on a universal scale and cost are new star formations too. One would wonder, how many black holes are there out there?
