Creation Moment 9/1/2020 - Quasar 3C279

And though I ....understand all mysteries, and all knowledge;... and have not love, I am nothing.
1 Corinthians 13:2

We've said it before---Black Holes sound like the Battery Chargers placed in each Galaxy by the Designer.

"A new letter has been found in the mysterious alphabet of black holes. Two astrophysicists share this discovery in the journal
Nature Communications.

Black holes are at the center of almost all galaxies that have been studied so far. They have an unimaginably large mass and therefore attract matter, gas, and even light. But they can also emit matter in the form of plasma jets — a kind of plasma beam that is ejected from the center of the galaxy with tremendous energy. A plasma jet can extend several hundred thousand light years far into space.
 
When this intense radiation is emitted, the black hole remains hidden because the light rays near it are strongly bent leading to the appearance of a shadow. This was recently reported by researchers of the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration for the massive black hole in the giant ellipse galaxy M87.
 
In quasar 3C279 – also a black hole – the EHT team found another phenomenon: At a distance of more than a thousand times the shadow of the black hole, the core of a plasma jet suddenly lit up. How the energy for this jet could get there as if through an invisible chimney was not yet known.
 
But back to the quasar 3C279: “I saw how the analysis of the data
revealed the special pattern of magnetic reconnection in the light curve. It felt as if I had suddenly deciphered a hieroglyph in the black hole alphabet,” says Amit Shukla happily.
 
During reconnection, energy that is initially stored invisibly in the magnetic field is suddenly released in numerous “mini-jets.” In these jets, particles are accelerated, which then produce the observed gamma radiation.
Magnetic reconnection would explain how the energy reaches the jet’s core from the black hole and where it ultimately comes from."
