How did NASA's NuSTAR measure a black hole's spin, solving an astrophysics controversy in the process?
With the help of NASA's brand new NuSTAR observatory, astronomers have measured the spin of a supermassive black hole by detecting the relativistic effects that warp space-time at the edge of its event horizon.
What do you get when you combine a galaxy, its central supermassive black hole and some cool astronomical techniques? ->
