Smiley face in space this is a phenomena known as gravitational lensing Its where gravity is so strong from a distant object that it warps the spacetime around a body in between Earth and the massive body

Many black holes in stellar systems are surely surrounded by disks of gas and plasma gravitationally pulled from a close binary star companion Some of this material ends up being expelled from the star system in powerful jets emanating from the poles of t
