Black Hole Accreting with Jet

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

When a black hole devours a star, it triggers powerful explosions. In 2014, the All Sky Automated Survey for SuperNovae recorded such an event, followed by observations from instruments like NASA's Swift satellite. Computer modeling of these emissions suggests a star being torn apart by a distant supermassive black hole. The resulting collision creates a jet of high-energy particles.
