The event could help astronomers figure out how supermassive black holes are born
The intermediate-size black hole, located 850 million light-years from Earth in the galaxy SDSS J152120.07+140410.5, snared and shredded the star after it wandered too close, sending out a powerful beam of light that astronomers used to locate it.
"What is more, we can use the properties of the flare itself to better understand this elusive group of middle-weight black holes, which could account for the majority of black holes in the centers of galaxies." After being captured by a black hole’s gravity, a star will get reeled ever closer to the gluttonous giant’s maw before being stripped and stretched layer by layer as it falls inside. This process transforms the star into a long, noodle-like string of hot plasma that tightly winds around the black hole like spaghetti around a fork. The process causes the plasma to accelerate, spinning out into an enormous jet of energy and matter that produces a distinctive bright flash.
