    A star screaming around Sagittarius A* at 8% the speed of light, close enough that its orbit could actually reveal our black hole's SPIN?! S301 might finally answer one of the biggest questions in galactic astrophysics ๐ŸŒ€๐Ÿ•ณ๏ธ

    S301 whipping past Sgr A* at 8% lightspeed could let us actually measure OUR black hole's spin via frame-dragging on its orbit. Spacetime itself getting dragged around, made visible with one star ๐ŸŒ€๐Ÿ•ณ๏ธ

  11. A Stephen Hawking Theory Could Reveal Strange New Objects That Challenge Physics 

    Pitris via Getty Images Tiny black holes created in the aftermath of violent cosmic collisions could offer unprecedented insight into the quantum structure of space and time, a new theoretical study proposes. Whatโ€™s more, signals from these โ€œblack hole morselsโ€ could potentially be detected by current instruments, scientists reported in the study, which was published in the journal Nuclear Physics Bโ€ฆโ€ฆ.Continue readingโ€ฆ.

  12. Galactic Wrestling Featuring Ultimate Muscle with Josh โ€œAnoriandโ€ Fagundes

    If youโ€™ve ever wondered what would happen if professional wrestling, superhero nonsense, and a generous helping of โ€œdid they really just do that?โ€ collided in a PS2-era video game, congratulations youโ€™ve found your people.

    This episode dives headfirst into Galactic Wrestling Featuring Ultimate Muscle, a game that asks the important questions, like how many absurdly named wrestlers can fit into one ring and whether flexing harder is a legitimate combat strategy (it is). Along the way, weโ€™re joined by Josh โ€œAnoriandโ€ Fagundes. Yes, that Anoriand from Twitch. He brings his streaming-honed wisdom and an appreciation for delightful chaos.

    Between the manga roots, anime flair, and a game that absolutely commits to the bit, thereโ€™s plenty to grapple with here. So lace up your boots, oil up yourโ€ฆ everything, and get ready for a match thatโ€™s less about winning and more about how spectacularly weird the journey can get.

    Learn such things as:

    • How do you make a sequel to a game and not have it on the same console?
    • What happens when the humor and moral values of such different societies donโ€™t really match up?
    • Does this game have anything surprisingly good in it, and does it even matter if it does?
    • And so much more!

    You can find Anoriand on Bluesky @anoriand, TikTok @anoriand, YouTube @AnoriandGD, and Twitch @anoriand. And he was on Super Deluxe GamesCast but as this is getting published, it was announced a few days ago that theyโ€™re changing the name to Maximum Hearts and I want to make sure that this horrible timing is saved for prosperity.

    The next episode is going to be Dragon Ball Z Budokai 2, so get your thoughts ready and over to me if you want to hear them in the show.

    If you want to hear Chris talk with Karrington Martin about the lessons we learned from childrenโ€™s media and how crazy it is that weโ€™re supposed to just forget about that now that weโ€™re adults, then Sugar, Spite, and Everything is Fine is probably something you should check out.

    A big thanks to Lee Carvalloโ€™s Podding Challenge and Peace Down and Down for the promos today.

  18. Massive black holes drag and warp the spacetime around them in extreme ways. Observing these effects firsthand is practically impossible, so physicists look for laboratory-sized analogs that behave similarly. Fluids offer one such avenue, since fluid dynamics mimics gravity if the fluid viscosity is low enough. To chase that near-zero viscosity, experimentalists turned to superfluid helium, a version of liquid helium near absolute zero that flows with virtually no viscosity. At these temperatures, vorticity in the helium shows up as quantized vortices. Normally, these tiny individual vortices repel one another, but a spinning propeller โ€” much like the blades of a blender โ€” draws tens of thousands of these vortices together into a giant quantum vortex.

    Here superfluid helium whirls in a quantum vortex.

    With that much concentrated vorticity, the team saw interactions between waves and the vortex surface that directly mirrored those seen in black holes. In particular, they detail bound states and black-hole-like ringdown phenomena. Now that the apparatus is up and running, they hope to delve deeper into the mechanics of their faux-black holes.
