"Groundbreaking Discovery: Spinning Black Hole Found 55 Million Light-Years Away"

A study led by Yuzhu Cui has provided solid proof that the supermassive black hole in the galaxy M87 is spinning. The study analyzed 17 years' worth of data from a global network of radio telescopes and discovered a recurring 11-year cycle of precessional jets, indicating a misalignment between the black hole's rotational axis and the accretion disk. This finding confirms the existence of spinning black holes and presents new challenges for scientists in understanding their structure and energy transfer mechanisms.
