These record-breaking black hole winds could create a category 79 hurricane on Earth
Astronomers have discovered a distant quasar powered by a feeding supermassive black hole blasting out winds at record-breaking speeds for such an outflow seen in ultraviolet light, traveling at 30% the speed of light.
Astronomers have identified a quasar with an exceptionally powerful outflow of material. This quasar is fueled by a supermassive black hole that is ejecting winds at speeds reaching 30% of the speed of light. This phenomenon represents a record-breaking velocity for such outflows observed in ultraviolet light.
The immense power of these black hole winds, if scaled to Earth's conditions, could theoretically surpass the intensity of any hurricane category currently defined.
