Unlocking the Universes Secrets Through Hydrogens Glow #nrao #thebaseline #hydrogen #space The National Radio Astronomy Observatory NRAO 2024-09-12 | Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe. Radio astronomers can see hydrogen by the light it emits, reflects, and even absorbs. Because hydrogen is everywhere, it can tell stories about the cosmos from the Big Bang to today.Join our host Summer Ash of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory as she talks about how hydrogen can tell us so much about the structure and evolution of the universe.Checkout the Baseline playlist @NRAOEPO

ALMA Supermassive Black Hole Short #nrao #alma #supermassiveblackhole #NGC3258 The National Radio Astronomy Observatory NRAO 2024-09-02 | What happens inside a black hole stays inside a black hole, but what happens inside a black hole’s “sphere of influence” – the innermost region of a galaxy where a black hole’s gravity is the dominant force – is of intense interest to astronomers and can help determine the mass of a black hole as well as its impact on its galactic neighborhood.New observations with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) provide an unprecedented close-up view of a swirling disk of cold interstellar gas rotating around a supermassive black hole. This disk lies at the center of NGC 3258, a massive elliptical galaxy about 100 million light-years from Earth. Based on these observations, a team led by astronomers from Texas A&M University and the University of California, Irvine, have determined that this black hole weighs a staggering 2.25 billion solar masses, the most massive black hole measured with ALMA to date.Learn more @NRAOEPO
Revolutionizing Astronomy the ngVLA #nrao #ngVLA #astronomy #stateoftheartfacilities #space The National Radio Astronomy Observatory NRAO 2024-08-30 | The National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) @NRAOEPO has enabled forefront research into the Universe at radio wavelengths for more than sixty years. Thus, inspired by dramatic discoveries with the research facilities of the NRAO and its international partners, a much more capable next-generation Very Large Array (ngVLA) is being designed and developed to open vast new discovery space, enabling scientists to directly image the formation of Earth-like planets, trace the complex organic molecules in star-forming regions, unravel the dense gas history of the Universe during the key epoch of galaxy assembly, probe fundamental physics, and much more. The design and development of this next-generation Very Large Array is being led by members of the astronomy community working in close collaboration with the NRAO scientific, technical, and senior management staff, and could achieve full science operations by mid-2034.The National Radio Astronomy Observatory is a facility of the National Science Foundation operated under cooperative agreement by Associated Universities, Inc
