Sagittarius A, Galaksi Misterius Kembaran Bima Sakti

By. AlgoritmaNews - Astronom menemukan pusat galaksi yang dianggap sebagai kembaran Bima Sakti. Inilah Sagittarius A*, sumber gelombang radio yang terletak pada inti galaksi.

Ilmuwan kini mempelajari galaksi spiral yang spektakuler, NGC 253 yang ditemukan dengan Very Large Telescope (VLT) di Chile dan Teleskop Antariksa Hubble milik NASA. Di saat yang sama, mereka berhasil sedikit memahami soal inti galaksi Sagittarius A*.

Sekedar diketahui, VLT (very large telescope) milik ESO (European Southern Observatory) merupakan peralatan yang dilengkapi dengan instrumen optik dan cermin yang mengatasi efek blur akibat pembiasan di atmosfer sehingga kemampuan teleskop terestrial ini setara dengan teleskop ruang angkasa.

Hasil pemantauan yang dikombinasikan dengan pengukuran gelombang maupun citra teleskop ruang angkasa Hubble menunjukkan adanya aktivitas gelombang radio yang sangat tinggi di kawasan tersebut. Para peneliti yakin di pusat galaksi ini terdapat sumber pancaran gelombang radio seperti Sagittarius A di dekat pusat galaksi Bima Sakti yang merupakan tempat terbentuknya lubang hitam.

Andrea Ghez, profesor ilmu fisika dan astronomi dari University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) yang mempelajari bintang dan planet, mengatakan kepada Daily Galaxy, kombinasi antara pengamatan lubang hitam yang terbentuk miliaran tahun lalu dan proses runtuhan bintang raksasa akan menciptakan pemahaman menakjubkan soal objek tunggal supermasif.

Penelitian Ghez terfokus kepada kehidupan awal bintang dan planet dan proses distribusi materi di galaksi. Dengan menggunakan teknik terbaru, Ghez berhasil membuktikan orbit bintang ternyata bisa membentuk lubang hitam. Tapi, ini bukan lubang hitam biasa, melainkan bersosok sangat besar.

Lubang hitam yang mereka temukan itu ternyata tiga juta kali lebih besar dari Matahari dan termasuk dalam kontelasi Sagitarius. Inti lubang hitam di galaksi Bima Sakti inilah yang disebut sebagai Sagittarius A*.

Sayangnya, ilmuwan masih belum bisa memahami secara deskriptif apa isi lubang hitam itu dan bagaimana proses pembentukannya.

Lubang hitam merupakan misteri alam yang diperkirakan terbentuk dari bintang sangat besar yang telah mati karena menghabiskan seluruh energinya. Saat pusatnya tak menghasilkan dorongan ke luar, dinding bintang malah runtuh dan menarik obyek-obyek di sekitarnya. Kekuatan gravitasi lubang hitam sangat besar bahkan menarik cahaya ke dalam. Lubang hitam gelap gulita dan hanya terdeteksi dari aktivitas gelombang radio dan obyek-obyek yang terlihat mengelilinginya.

Astronom menghabiskan puluhan tahun untuk mempelajari pusat kekuatan misterius di galaksi Bima Sakti yang memiliki jarak 26.000 tahun cahaya dari Bumi. Namun, belum bisa dipastikan jenis objek itu.

The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it'll do even better in those areas, but for now it's a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod's strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass' favor.

I'll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod's. It works well, but isn't as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that's not an issue, but if you're planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod's larger screen and better browser may be important.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

Sorry for the huge review, but I'm really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it's the right choice for you.
