- NASA’s NuSTAR telescope photographs black holes.
- It found a very unique black hole called Markarian 335.
- It is unique because it is near a light source: a corona.
- Coronas emit X-rays, which NuSTAR can see.
- NuSTAR has photographed X-rays being sucked into the black hole.
- Scientists now have an incredible view of Einstein’s theory of general relativity at work.
- Markarian 335 spins so fast that space and time bend.
