Скачать или смотреть This Star Proves Einstein Right in the Most Extreme Environment Imaginable

Einstein’s theory of General Relativity predicted exactly how stars should behave when they orbit a supermassive black hole. In 2018, one star — known as S2 — passed extremely close to Sagittarius A, the black hole at the center of our Milky Way. ESO’s high-precision observations confirmed Einstein’s predictions and ruled out simpler Newtonian gravity in this extreme environment.*

This video shows a full scientific visualization of the stellar orbits near Sagittarius A*, based on real astronomical measurements.
The simulation highlights how stars like S2 move within just light-days of the central black hole, revealing the incredible gravitational forces shaping the Galactic Center.

🔭 ABOUT THIS VIDEO

This upload is an educational presentation of the official ESO simulation.
It visualizes:
• the orbital paths of stars near Sagittarius A*
• the S2 star’s close approach in 2018
• the gravitational effects predicted by General Relativity
• the dense, dynamic stellar environment at the Galactic Center

This is one of the clearest visualizations ever created of how stars behave near a supermassive black hole.
