The magical effects in the heart of the Milky Way: Researchers have unveiled an amazing cosmic dance of a constellation, around the black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy, an area where the gravitational field is perhaps the strongest that exists in our galaxy.

Thanks to a new documentation technique, in which the resolution is very high, the research team from one of the Max Planck institutes in Germany was able to identify a completely new star, which was named S300.

The footage, taken using a powerful European Space Agency telescope stationed in Chile, will help astronomers learn more about the Big Black Hole.

How much power does the black hole have on the stars? A small example: a star named S29 observed approaching the black hole, reached speeds of 8,700 kilometers per second!

Supermassive black holes emerge relatively soon after their galaxies form, devouring enormous amounts of gas, dust and even stars to reach such a huge size.

And from space to mystery in the depths: Scientists recently implanted tiny microphones in a restored coral reef in Indonesia, and wanted to use them to check the state of reef recovery.

To their surprise, they discovered a rich variety of amazing and new sounds, which revealed the mystery underwater – the sounds and chirps of fish that sound like birds on top of a tree in the heart of the forest. The researchers succeeded after three years, not only in restoring the place, but in reviving the reef and increasing the biodiversity that exists in it. But what fish makes those sounds? It remains a mystery.

And finally, pay attention to this cute puppy – Ayalon Giovanni who was just born at the Warsaw Zoo.

Ayalonians are small creatures that usually live in tropical forests in Africa, but also in various places in Asia. The Javanese Ayalon is endemic to the island of Java, belonging to Indonesia.

The zoo announced that they are very excited about the litter, and that the entire staff is happy to hear and see his first walk. He is only about 10 centimeters tall and his gender is still unknown. What’s more – along with the excitement, there is also wonder. His parents, Arnold and Linda, only met a few months ago, and have already managed to produce offspring.
