Reported by Phys.org
Zyx: Right? And speaking of physics, a new study claims a neutron within the ergosphere of Sgr A*, the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, could extract energy through the magnetic Penrose process, according to Phys.org and Universe Today.
Zyx: The study suggests this could generate protons with energies in the PeV range, a thousand times more energetic than the most powerful protons in the Large Hadron Collider.
Aria: That is an absolutely massive amount of energy. Simply staggering!
