What happens When Black Holes Collide???
Science gives us opportunity to explore the unknown.The
sign of a truly great scientific theory is by the outcomes it predicts
when you run experiments or perform observations. And one of the
greatest theories ever proposed was the concept of Relativity, described
by Albert Einstein in the beginning of the 20th century.
It is possible for two black holes to collide. Once they come so close that they cannot escape each other's gravity, they will merge to become one bigger black hole. Such an event would be extremely violent. Even when simulating this event on powerful computers, we cannot fully understand it. However, we do know that a black hole merger would produce tremendous energy and send massive ripples through the space-time fabric of the Universe. These ripples are called gravitational waves.
Nobody has witnessed a collision of black holes yet. However, there are many black holes in the Universe and it is not preposterous to assume that they might collide. In fact, we know of galaxies in which two super-massive black holes move dangerously close to each other. Theoretical models predict that these black holes will spiral toward each other until they eventually collide.See the video for more details.......
