NASA has released new images of a super-massive black hole. The pictures taken by the Chandra X-fay Observatoryshow opposing jets of high-energy extending from the black hole to theedges of the galaxy known as Centaurus A. The Centaurus A galaxy is tenmillion light years away.
美國太空總署公佈一個超大質量黑洞的照片. 這些由Chandra X光天文台拍攝的照片顯示相反方向的高能量噴流從黑洞延伸到這個名為半人馬座A星系的邊緣. 半人馬座A離我們有一千萬光年遠.
A black hole, like theone in Centaurus A, is formed when a massive star collapses from itsown gravity. The pull of gravity is so strong that not even light canescape.
黑洞, 像在半人馬座A星系的這一個, 是當一個質量大的恆星因為自己的引力而塌縮後形成. 此引力強大得連光線都無法逃逸.
Scientists think theseX-ray jets are an important way of transporting energy away from thecenter of the black hole and impact the creation of new stars nearby.
科學家們認為這些X光噴射流是把能量從黑洞中心運輸出來的重要方式, 同時也影響到附近新星的形成.
The X-ray jets powered by the black hole have the ability to obliterate any possible life in their path.
由黑洞射出的X光噴射流有能力將所有它途徑上有可能存在的生命完全毀滅.
