NICER detected X-ray light from a recently discovered black hole, called MAXI J1820+070 (J1820 for short), as it consumed material from a companion star. Waves of X-rays formed "light echoes" that reflected off the swirling gas near the black hole and revealed changes in the environment’s size and shape.
The video went viral this week after the NASA Exoplanets team reshared the clip, leading many on the internet to fear ever hearing the noise in real life. "According to NASA, a black hole sounds ...
Sagittarius A*, abbreviated as Sgr A* (/ ˈ s æ dʒ ˈ eɪ s t ɑːr / SADGE-AY-star [3]), is the supermassive black hole [4] [5] [6] at the Galactic Center of the Milky Way.Viewed from Earth, it is located near the border of the constellations Sagittarius and Scorpius, about 5.6° south of the ecliptic, [7] visually close to the Butterfly Cluster (M6) and Lambda Scorpii.
For an example of truly inaudible frequencies, when the Chandra X-ray Observatory observed the waves of pressure fronts propagating away from a black hole, their one oscillation every 10 million years was described by NASA as corresponding to the B ♭ fifty-seven octaves below middle C (B ♭ −53 or 3.235 fHz).

Last year, NASA released an audio representation of magnetic field activity around Jupiter's moon Ganymede. More recently, we got to hear a terrifying depiction of what a black hole sounds like.
A black hole's event horizon, one of the most violent places in the universe, is the point of no return beyond which anything - stars, planets, gas, dust, all forms of electromagnetic radiation ...
Acoustic – frequency of G −7, the lowest note sung by the singer with the deepest voice in the world, Tim Storms.

A team of researchers has captured how the dust surrounding black holes absorbs and reflects the flares produced by a tidal disruption. NASA just captured an incredible look at a black hole eating ...
