HONG KONG: After discovering the closest pair of twin black holes, scientists advance hypotheses on possible space changes after supermassive black holes collision. The imminent event could shake the entire universe and cause the complete vanish of the galaxy. Scientists began making suppositions when they first noticed that two supermassive black holes in the Virgo constellation have grown very close to one another in the past months. At the beginning of the year, they estimated that the collision could take place in 200,000 years.
Recent light signals emitted by quasar 1302-102 indicate that the explosion could occur at a much earlier date. Since the two mammoth black holes are separated only by 20 light years, the collision is set to take place in 100,000 years, scientists have explained.
Their new conclusion is based on the high frequency of light signals coming from the said quasar. During past researches, it has been observed that light signals come from the gas discs surrounding the two black holes.
According to the Doppler boost principle, which was used for the current study, the closer the two mammoth black holes come to one another, the more visible and frequent the lights become due to relativistic effects.
