This “Impossible” Black Hole Merger Now Has a Shocking Explanation

WooGlobe

In 2023, astronomers witnessed something that defied the laws of physics — a colossal black hole merger that shouldn’t have happened. These two black holes were too massive and spinning too fast to exist under known cosmic rules.  Now, groundbreaking simulations from the Flatiron Institute reveal the missing piece: magnetic fields. By simulating the life and death of massive stars, scientists discovered that magnetic fields can eject stellar material at near light-speed — changing how black holes form, how massive they become, and even how fast they spin.  This revelation not only explains the &quot;forbidden&quot; merger of GW231123 but also opens a new window into the hidden forces shaping our universe.

00:00A mysterious black hole merger shocked scientists in 2023.

00:04Two giants collided 7 billion light-years away.

00:07But their size and spin should have been impossible.

00:10These black holes were too massive and spinning too fast.

00:13By all known science, they shouldn't exist.

00:16So how did they form?

00:18At the Flatiron Institute, astrophysicists ran next-level simulations.

00:22They tracked stars 250 times the mass of our sun from birth to collapse.

00:27But here's the twist.

00:28They added magnetic fields.

00:30Something past studies ignored.

00:32Turns out, magnetic fields dramatically change what happens after a star explodes.

00:37They can blast away huge chunks of material before it feeds the newborn black hole.

00:41This means the black hole ends up lighter, landing right in the impossible mass range.

00:46Even more shocking?

00:48Stronger magnetic fields create slower black holes.

00:51Weaker fields?

00:52Faster and heavier ones.

00:54This could explain why the 2023 black holes were spinning near light speed.

00:58And there's more.

01:00These events might produce gamma-ray bursts.

01:02Flashes we could actually detect.

01:04A brand new way to study how the universe builds its biggest beasts!

01:08What we thought was impossible may just be magnetic magic.

01:11We've got a lot of

01:26the Dead Lightning Palace.

01:27We'll get it.

01:28We'll get it.

01:28I'm going to follow-up assassin.

01:29We'll get it.

01:30We've got more인데 units.

01:31We'll get it.

01:32We'll get it.

01:33We'll get it.

01:35We'll get it.

01:36We'll get it.

01:37We'll get it.

01:38We'll get it.

01:39So we'll get it.
