RE: Blackhole - For SteemSTEM Public-Domain Image Repository

I can definitely add more things, but I am basically confused what exactly a black hole should look like??

The last one is my bet, since it has the spiraling debris and jets, However, @lemouth, the interstellar version that @medro-martin was going for was potentially the most realistic looking according to the nobel prize winner and advisor of that movie Kip Thorne who then went on to write a book about the physics of the movie... so maybe they do look like Condoms?

The new image is actually much better (my comment was referring to the previous version), and I like it. If the motion could be made a little bit more spirally, it would even be better but this is at the level of the unnecessary details :)

The last one is the one I had in mind.

Please see my answer to mobbs :)

Okay my dear scientist fellows : @mobbs, @lemouth!!
What @mobbs says was exactly the reason why I went for the Interstellar type black hole, though the general perception still remains of the last type.
So, maybe I should just try making it a bit more spirally whenever I get time as @lemouth has suggested, and leave the jets since I am also running short of space for proper jets in my drawing. That's because I had planned for a more compact looking black hole initially.

Thanks a lot for your valuable suggestions.
Let me know if there is anything else...

Jets are there, arising from the dynamics around the black hole. We however don't know how they are exactly produced (we have instead different hypotheses). But this is not mandatory to have both on the same picture. The spiraling accretion is the most important effect.

That's good. So, maybe I'll make one more drawing with jets!
Since, we have had such a good and productive discussion, it must be put to use.
Will that be good?

I was not planning to write about black holes. What about trying to draw something on cosmic neutrinos and the Ptolemy project? I may write on this sooner or later :)

Okay, I'll definitely try it.
You can DM me the details(if any)...that will help me a lot.
But, you'll have to wait for approximately a week. I am currently finding it difficult to find time to post anything here...a bit busy currently..

Thanks :)

I was so busy... Don't worry, I will DM you the details later. This post won't appear before a week or two :D
