Image of the Day: Galaxy Born from a Strange Colossal Black Hole

Supermassive black holes may zap galaxies into existence from scratch, new observations suggest. Astronomers recently observed a peculiar large black hole that did not belong to a surrounding galaxy as expected. Until now, scientists thought that this black hole's host galaxy was merely shrouded in dust and rendered invisible to us. The black hole, designated HE0450-2958, is located about 5 billion light-years away from Earth. It is a type of supermassive black hole known as a quasar, which releases extremely bright jets of high-energy light.

Researchers used the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope to capture new observations of the quasar targeted to search for dust in long-wavelength infrared light.

Now it will finally dawn upon our scientists. That "black holes" are interdimensional portals serving for downstepping higher dimensional energy.

Think of galaxies like flowers. Petals (arms) stem from ovary. A black hole is an ovary, where it all comes from.

Galaxies bud into existence through the central black hole. You really should stop thinking about them as "devourers". They are energy givers. They generate energy and matter. They spill out suns.

You really get what you pay for with the Rosetta Stone language courses . If you’re looking for other benefits, consider that fact that you don’t have to commute to college in order to learn a foreign language.Rosettastone’s lack of compatibility with PDA’s is not a very serious drawback, especially if you don’t want to drive or walk to school anyway. If you intend to study a language entirely at home, then Rosetta stone is the best alternative to sitting in a class room. Another benefit of utilizing this powerful language learning tool is in preparation for a college course. You can use the software to learn the language and then fly through your college course, get a letter A grade, and apply the credits toward a degree or certificate. I think you will have interests to see Rosetta Stone discount.
