Introduction

1. Rain from space

In the latest study, astrophysicist Laura Olivera-Nieto at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg, Germany, and her collaborators studied a microquasar called SS 433.

Okay

The black hole lies in the Aquila Constellation at around 18,000 light years (5.5 kiloparsecs) from the Solar System, and forms a binary system together with a large star.

That this is a binary system is a very important fact. It creates a stable system, but both components are instable.

Matter ejected from the star swirls around the black hole then spirals into it, generating highly energetic jets.

That is one way how binary systems can merge.
