    A hungry black hole. A tempting star. Dinner's on the table! - video

    TESS watched a black hole tear apart a star
    Eleanor Imster in SPACE | November 7, 2019

    TESS watched a black hole tear apart a star from start to finish, a cataclysmic phenomenon called a tidal disruption event.


    When a star strays too close to a black hole, intense tides break it apart into a stream of gas. The tail of the stream escapes the system, while the rest of it swings back around, surrounding the black hole with a disk of debris. This video includes images of a tidal disruption event called ASASSN-19bt taken by NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and Swift missions, as well as an animation showing how the event unfolded.
