ASTRONOMY IS FUN
Blanet, the Possibility to Find a Planet around the Black Hole
The scientific explanation of Miller’s Planet and Black Hole in the Interstellar film
In the last decade, the black hole became a hot topic to be discussed. After astronomers worldwide announced their first-ever picture of a black hole in 2019, The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded astronomers for their discovery about the black hole a year later. Roger Penrose builds the theory, while Reinhard Genzel and Andrea Ghez work in the observational.
People can understand a black hole in a simple by watching a science fiction film, Interstellar. Christopher Nolan produces it. He collaborates with a senior cosmologist, Kip Thorne as a scientific consultant. Interstellar was awarded as the Best Visual Effects at the 87th Academy Awards in 2014.
Interstellar says that the Earth will be inhabitable because of the lack of oxygen and food shortages. Most of the people are farmers. But, it will not be last long as devastating sandstorms ravage the crops. One of the best solutions to survive is finding a new habitable planet outside the Solar System.
Astronomers from NASA had researched three candidates exoplanet, Miller’s planet, Edmunds’s planet, and Mann’s…
