I cannot believe "we're gonna try to take a photo of the black hole, wait a few years please" is a realistic statement. So cool that we can actually do this. What a time to be alive...
Astrophysicists look at observations of the space around a suspected BH. Then look for effects that would indicate a BH exists.
BH, aka butt hole 🤔 jk 😏
I thought they already had an image
The picture - ✨🕳️✨
@@MaNNeRz91 Wow so ✨detailed✨
These videos are amazing! The images are almost unbelievable!
In the eary 80's, I was a sailor on a containership, working as the reefer engineer. Some nights, out in the Pacific Ocean, far away from artificial light, I was amazed, that even on moonless nights, the stars alone lit up the 'night'!
I engineered a lot of reefer back in the early 80's, too. I wasn't a sailor, though. 😜
I was on I-80 coming east through the Nevada desert about 1 a.m. and, even though I was really tired and just wanted to hit the next town for a hotel, I HAD to stop and admire the starry sky. What an absolutely breathtaking sight. I wish everyone could witness the majesty that I beheld that night.
@@Tessmage_Tessera yeah, that trip, I watched tuna boats in Guam, load their chilled (not frozen) tuna into 40' reefers, that were promptly loaded on my ship, set to -10°f !
That's what kept me up at night! I didn't lose any container!
It was my first "reefer" job. I thought I wasn't doing something right. I didn't put in overtime for it all, because I didn't understand that (container) reefers weren't designed to freeze stuff, just to maintain the temperature!
At the end of the trip, the 1st and I went out drinking. He told me that, the trip we had made, was the first trip that had not lost one container of reefer cargo, and that when he and the Chief were going over the overtime records, that the Chief said that he couldn't figure out what I was up to, as I had the lowest overtime, yet didn't lose any cargo!
My bad! I could have made a shit ton of money, and they would have still been happy!
@@brucelytle1144 In 1988 I went camping in Zavalla, Texas, I think the population was like 700 people. It was in Davy Crockett National Park miles from nowhere. We were literally 100's of miles from the nearest city. The first night I kept seeing what I thought was a slightly purple tinted cloud in the middle of the sky. The next night it was still there and then the next and the next. Finally I figured out that was no cloud but the Milky Way! Something this city kid had never seen before and still hasn't since.
Thanks Anton, watching Anton is scientifically proven to improve your day ( even if it's not been great ) and it definitely improves your mind. Have a great weekend everyone. PEACE AND LOVE TO EVERYONE ❤❤.
Enjoy your Sunday bro ☀️

Nice 😎👍👍
LOL 3:30 "Subscribe and stuff" very good!!!
Am I the only one who waves back when Anton waves?
No, I sometimes do that too!
There's a lot of us :) you're in good company 😊
No.👋
Wonderful as always Anton. Thank you. ✌️
"There's a black hole there." "Nu uh!" "Uh huh" .... for 20 years
More like :
Shouldn't be a black hole here?
20 years later ...
There it is!
So you said the stars in the cluster were one tenth of a light year apart from each other. Now that sounds close considering some of the huge distances we talk about but it would still take us 7,000 years to go one tenth of a light year. Just wow
Omega Centauri is a really nice object to see through binoculars or telescope. The southern sky is amazing.
They make nice watches.
I was able to see Omega Centari at my parents house last week!
How is he doing? Is he holding it together 😅
I was attempting to do the math of the "star density" of this cluster, and it's insane.
(My math may be wrong). 10 million stars within a radius of 75 LY gave me ~5.6 stars per cubic-LY average.
Our nearest star is ~4LY away. A radius of 4LY becomes ~268 cubic-LY in volume.
In terms of the night sky, there would be something like ~1500 stars within the radius of our just 1 nearest star.
That is an amazing thing to consider. I wonder what the night sky would look like if you were on a planet in that cluster
10 000 000÷((4÷3)×3,14×75^(3)) ~= 5.66
Checked and approved.
I've done similar calculations several times, and always got between 3-6 stars per ly³. You do have to recognize that the distribution isn't uniform, though. The very center will be much more densely populated than the peripheral.
Finally. They had to be out there. Thanks for your excellent work with sifting through all those papers!
This may have even more interesting implications. What is all galaxies started as globular clusters? What if every globular cluster has a central black hole? We are really in the golden time of cosmological/astrophysical research.
I do like the idea of that, and I see that galaxies growing that way.
My main question about this is, would this processes alone be too slow to create supermassive galaxies?
@@stoborking
Maybe not... The early universe was "smaller" and thus gravity would be strong as everything else would be relatively closer. However, that also means the chaotic interactions can fling a cluster far further away after it builds enough velocity. That still doesn't explain why the clusters don't grow the same way other galaxies do or why the core stops eating.
I do wonder if there is any correlation in dark matter between Globular Clusters and full size Galaxies.
It's a superb time to be alive for cosmology.
(Edited for proper terminology and clarity, Thanks Napoleonic_s. O7)
@@LordofSyn That's true everything was closer together. I can't wait to hear further updates on this.
And What an exciting time for cosmology indeed. I find myself looking forwards to new videos.
@@LordofSyn
Dark energy? Did you mean dark matter? About dark matter, I guess maybe there are way more rogue objects in the universe, rogue planets, rogue black holes, rogue asteroids that wander around not just between interstellar space but also between intergalactic space.
@@Napoleonic_S
Yes, thank you for catching that. I absolutely did mean Dark Matter. We can infer a rough amount of dark matter in larger galaxies so I am curious as to what we can infer from globular clusters.
Another wonderful space experience 💜💜💜💜
Black holes are hard to observe, but the results can be incredible to follow.
Thank you, Anton
Unfortunately, the EHT is probably not able to image this object, as the resolution is too low. While much closer to earth, the object is also much smaller. The black hole diameter, as observed from earth, is only about 4 microarcseconds, and the resolution of the EHT is around 25 microarcseconds (the diameter of the M87 black hole is about 100 microarcseconds).
This man is a wonderful person, made of hard work and dedication to educational content I look forward to every day, thanks homie!
Thank you Anton, you make interesting and excellent science videos.
fantastic discovery anton thanks
can't wait to see what EHT discovers and look forward to an update in the future
Thank you for all your research and summary’s.
I love your content. Thank you for sharing ❤
I am so ready for this!
Another very nice video, Anton. Cheers from the Pacific West Coast of Canada.
Interesting information, thanks 👍😊
3:34 Thank you Anton for that delightful chuckle, and stuff.
Most interesting.
Anton + “black holes” = awesome vid ….always
Nice to see Hubble getting some love !
Maybe large spiral galaxies have supermassive black holes at their core and dwarf galaxies have intermediate black holes in their cores. Have we studied dwarf galaxies enough to know?
This being the first find, no
Anton inspired me to make my own YT channel. Thank you!
One day we should do a little collab! I've been wanting to do more with astro degree process, too 🙏🏻👑
Best website on the internet.
Yooooo this is super exciting!!!
Anton is the GOAT
You all have filled my heart with joy. Thank you for your kind words!
Anton is at it again bringing us lay folk the low down in cutting edge Astronomical observation :>
I was expecting you to publish content on the black holes at the center of the globular clusters story. Thank you.
Amazing video as always Anton.
Also I hate to bring this up, but wtf are up with these comments
What comments?
I just imagine JWST being excited "I found it! I found it".
"Good boy JWST!, Here's a treat! Keep searching!".
😂
Didn't Hubble find it first......if so, "Nice work JWST Hubble already found it, get back to work...slacker. (If I misunderstood Anton my bad)
🙋♀️always interesting
Calling something of this mass intermediate... What is "big"?
Hubble is still proving its worth! Thank you, Anton!
Million to billion solar masses
"Subscribe and Stuff..." lol Best learning channel going. Love the content Anton!
It actually doesn't surprise me that intermediate black holes are difficult to detect. I imagine they are fairly quiet so don't produce many emissions, or perhaps next to none at all, they likely only interact with a few stellar objects very close to them so observing this is also very difficult and perhaps they are just pretty rare currently in the universe and our galaxy proportionally speaking. Perhaps only a few very very old stellar black holes have had enough time and been in just the right places and circumstances to reach intermediate sizes.
It would be interesting to know about any planetary systems around those stars.
3:32 oh well, that is probaly the best invite for a channel subscription I have ever seen, I wish i was joking
Finally the last thing in my bucket list
I wonder if globular clusters have their own dark matter haloes?
If they do that may help explain why they all seem so tethered together
Astronomers have seen gravitational lensing for a LONG time. They just didn't know they could be "black holes".
I can't wait to see a photo of this black hole if they do take it.
Fascinating!
Cool!
Does this say anything about the direct collapse hypothesis then? Like, now that we're pretty sure intermediate-mass BHs do exist, maybe the heavy seeds are out of the question?
If I recall correctly, Ian Douglas used this star cluster and Captain's Star in his Star Carrier series. Not necessarily in the way presented, but one possibly relevant bit being that a stellar discovery within the globular cluster had been 'missed' by observers at the time from earth, until it was pointed out to them where to look. I think it was used more as a demonstration of the fact that with the number of stars in the globular cluster, it is difficult to 'find' things that are out of the ordinary, simply because there is so much data to pour through.
Here's hoping that the Event Horizon Telescope is able to observe something affecting light in a measurable method. I'm inclined to expect that the black hole has the available stellar dust to go active, unless it's feeding off the ambient dust in the Milky Way. If I recall the recent videos correctly, globular clusters like this are likely to have been around since shortly after the universe cooled enough for such stellar arrangements to have started forming, and as a result has had 13 billion or so years to settle all it's dust into stars, planets, or any related black holes.
The more a few developments in telescopes changes our view, the more silly it feels how much cosmologists trusted the old telescopes to offer anything close to a complete story
Anton i hope with all my heart you are the amazing, kinda dorky but absolutely endlessly charming guy away from TH-cam that you are on it. Your parents did something very right.
Nice
Out of curiosity... if protostars in the process of forming solar systems tend to flatten out over time... and galaxies themselves tend to flatten out over time (excluding ancient galaxies that have morphed into elliptical shapes due to many galaxy collisions)... why don't we see any globular clusters flattening out over time?
I don’t know but that is the best question i have read this week. I would say that the objects that flatten out are rotating whereas globular clusters don’t..
What an intriguing investigation.
When the origin of clusters and galaxies is becoming clearer, one wonders how many spin offs will emerge from this work in terms of cluster dynamics and evolution.
i hope to see you before they took a picture of that region. It is my understanding that Event Horizon takes years to coordinate and months of data collection before a team can combine the data.
How can that star cluster be around for 13 billion years and not collapsed due to gravity?
Same reason the galaxy hasn't
They say you cant teach an old dog new tricks but hubble proved otherwise.
Are objects which can only be seen from more southern locations appropriate for investigation by the Event Horizon Telescope?
"Omega Centauri" is a banging name!
Considering that _omega_ has a metaphorical meaning of last, final, or ultimate, it basically means the ass-end of Centaurus. 🐎😜
Thank you so much for this insightful video. Not only does the findings seem to back up the stance that globular clusters are ancient galaxies that didn't have enough early interactions to allow their Black Hole cores to grow.
Is there a way to infer or glean more information regarding dark matter from this? How have these clusters been able to find a harmony where the stars around the core haven't broken orbit and fallen toward the core, especially in Billions of human years?
These stellar dances are amazing to consider but I think and wonder about what being on a planet around one of these stars screaming around the black hole.
What if there was a clock and calendar there? How much would time dilation effect them over the span of 1 solar orbit about the BH core?
There's nothing strange about that. Black holes and galaxies don't collide that often. SMB were made at the start of our universe in completely different circumstances. And then there are more recent slow growing holes.
I keep thinking that clusters are orbiting Galaxy's that got blasted by our Galaxy's Feeding Black hole and Lost all it's gas and Mass due to being Blasted by the Energy off the Poles of the Black hole. Could not that Happen back in the past? We are still curious about the Gas Halo that we have seen. could it be Related?
Glad they found the missing link. I wonder if every cluster has a black hole
He mentioned that
@thekaxmax Seems like it's still a mystery, he just focused on Omega Centauri
Neat
Since BH are a form of MAGNETARS, it would make sense that they would decay as MAGNETARS do. What form does the decay take? A subatomic form of magnetism, shed from the parent body, too small to detect. Until encountering compressed gas which causes the immediate expansive explosion?
Could this be all the missing mass?
Anton, I'm a regular viewer of your informative videos! Errr..., I don't mean to alarm you but I'm observing a micro black hole developing on your right shoulder! Is there a risk of you being spaghettified? If so do you intend to capture the event on video?
Subscribe and stuff!!! I love it. You should turn that into a tee shirt lmao
I wonder in time do these black holes with a cluster of stars eventually consume said stars growing as a result using lunch time as a fuel to propel it self throughout the cosmos??? 🤔
Finally! Take that, you IMBH sceptics. It's sort of a galactic 'Failure to Thrive.'
Why the theory always is that blackholes become bigger, in that case maybe the blackhole actually became smaller. Everything around out starts out small and becomes bigger, and eventually it becomes smaller, or it doesnt become bigger and fades out of existence. The same with a planet, with for example gravity/atmosphere it attracts and keeps debris and slowly becomes bigger, without atmosphere it actually can get stripped by solar winds depending on the strength of gravity and the strength of solwar winds, collisions add but very big collisions may subtract. Energy can always go up and down. So could it be that it used to be a big black hole but actually became smaller?
Black hole event horizon diameter is 100% linked to its mass. Because the mass causes it.
2:04 My second UFO spotting in an Anton video! 😮
Bottom 1/3, traveling Right to Left. *
If shows up two more times later on, albeit one is a repeat of the same clip, so not sure that one counts. 😊
_edit: 3! I think the third one is a recycled clip that featured the _*_first one_*_ I had seen a few minutes ago lol_
No. Just no.
Does this cluster orbit differently?
No
A black hole smaller than a galactic core, but at the core of a cluster of stars-maybe a kind of mini-galaxy?
of course it is essentially relatively...
I like how you show the stars whizzing by the camera as you plunge deeper into space in order to be able to actually do that you would have to be traveling ungodly amounts of fast
so if a intermediate black hole is in the omega centauri then what is in the magalinic cloud around our own milky way??
3:31 overwhelming energy in a self-plug coming in three...two...
🤣
We're having trouble finding something that by its very nature is basically invisible?? (surprised Pikachu face)
But on a serious note, I wonder if it's a case of once we see enough of them, and start to notice peculiarities about them that makes them easier to find, if we'll then start noticing them elsewhere?
Imagine the night sky on a planet there being that high over the galactic plane. The universe organizing itself
next video: sun monsters
And what keeps all these stars from condensing into one super black hole?
Same thing that stops the galaxy collapsing.
it looks like its exploding , i wonder what a catastrophic failure of a black hole would look like...as if the singularity was compressed to the point of exploding?
Black holes can't explode. They're as compressed as they can get.
At the beginning of the video, I wonder if he meant "relatively exciting", or "relativity exciting".
Globular clusters have always been far more intriguing to me than black holes.
Black holes make sense. Globular clusters seem to defy the laws of gravity. Especially a 12 bn year old one.
"Subscribe!" 😂😂😂😂😂
Maybe theyre not holes. Maybe theyre just atoms that lost their outer "fuzz" of electrons.
I've been "subscribed and stuff" but I would do it again if I could!
Is it called Anton's hole?
If I wasn't already subscribed, that "Subscribe! ...and stuff" would've made me do it.
Should it bother us that they haven’t produced more deep field images of space? It bothers me.
Hubble fighting back against JWST…
Check this, James!
everyone loves hubble :3
whaaat da maaath?

10M stars with the total mass being about 4M solar masses? Certainly possible, but that gives an “average” mass of ~0.4 solar mass, implying lots of red dwarf stars and few/no high mass stars. The 8200 solar mass black hole having essentially no impact on those numbers. While plausible, sounds unlikely.
Globular masses are just little bundles of condensed magic really ain't they. Little fireflies. I'm a deep believer in synchronicity, like patterns or fractals are seen at all scales, including with consciousness, like it's our collective uniqueness and total potential decision space expressed like a wave function. Perfect circles and consciousness signatures or individualities. Like what would an Anton Matrioska brain be like; it's in teh wave function.
There is a galaxy size black hole that the milky way orbit around
8,200 solar masses or 80 to 100 solar masses?
From Wikipedia: "Supermassive black holes are classically defined as black holes with a mass above 100,000 solar masses" -Supermassive_black_hole
So I think it is the first number.
Subs say 88,200
