Black Hole Animation: Find Trustworthy Links for Astronomy Presentation

[JeffOCA]

Hello

I'm looking for an animation showing the travel into a black hole. I need a trustable one for an astronomy presentation. Can someone tell me some interesting links ?

Thanks,
Jeff

I've seen at least one one more in recent months, but I can't remember where now, maybe NASA, I'm not sure. It took the form of a quiz: it asked what speed to accelerate to reach your destination in a reasonable time, stuff like that. I think there was the option of seeing a stellar mass black hole and the supermassive one at the center of the galaxy. Then it had animations of each seen close-up, although not I think of crossing the event horizon.

Hello Jeff,

There are several trustworthy sources for black hole animations in astronomy presentations. Here are a few links that you may find helpful:

1. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) website has a collection of animations and videos related to black holes. These animations are created using actual data and simulations from NASA's telescopes and spacecrafts. You can find them here: https://www.nasa.gov/topics/universe/features/black-hole-animation.html

2. The European Space Agency (ESA) also has a collection of black hole animations, including a 360-degree video of a simulated journey into a black hole. You can access them here: https://www.esa.int/ESA_Multimedia/Images/2019/04/Black_hole_animation

3. The Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) has a YouTube channel with a variety of educational videos and animations related to astronomy. They have a few black hole animations, including a simulation of a black hole merging with a companion star. You can find them here: https://www.youtube.com/user/SpaceTelescopeScience

I hope these links are helpful in finding a trustworthy black hole animation for your presentation. Best of luck with your presentation!
