Schwarze Löcher - Geheimnisvolle Giganten im Universum

Triggered by observations in radio astronomy, scientists discovered extremely high-energy "quasi-stellar radio sources" - or quasars for short. How could this enormous amount of energy be explained, even though quasars are relatively small and far away? Einstein's general theory of relativity was a starting point with the possibility of exploding stars that collapse in a gravitational collapse and take surrounding matter and energy with them. The gravitational forces are so strong that even light can no longer escape. But how can we make the invisible measurable?

Black Holes: The Edge of All We Know

Black holes stand at the limit of what we can know. To explore that edge of knowledge, the Event Horizon Telescope links observatories across the world to simulate an earth-sized instrument. With this tool the team pursues the first-ever picture of a black hole, resulting in an image seen by billions of people in April 2019. Meanwhile, Hawking and his team attack the black hole paradox at the heart of theoretical physics—Do predictive laws still function, even in these massive distortions of space and time? Weaving them together is a third strand, philosophical and exploratory using expressive animation. “Edge” is about practicing science at the highest level, a film where observation, theory, and philosophy combine to grasp these most mysterious objects.
