Why are there 3 bright spots on the Sgr A* photo?
editAt 8:28 in "How to Understand What Black Holes Look Like" by Veritassium. (Wikipedia won't let me link the video)
Derek from veritassium talks about how one side of the image will look brighter than the other because of the spin of the acretion disk. And shows a more accurate simulation of the interstellar black hole.
But to me, I would just expect 1 kinda lump where it's brighter on that one side. But in the Sagittarius A* photo there are 3 bright spots.
Even the M87 photo kinda looks like 2 bright spots instead of just 1 like I would expect. 2600:100C:B257:C80E:4928:A5B1:2F28:FE4E (talk) 16:05, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
- I'm afraid talk pages are made for editors to discuss how they can improve the article they are dedidcated to, not as a place to talk about the topic itself. Please keep this in mind next time you use a talk page. Infrish 2 (talk) 11:53, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
