A general illustration of a star being torn apart by the tidal forces of a black hole. Some of the material forms a hot accretion disk, from which a high-speed wind is emitted. The researchers speculate that a similar mechanism, within a binary system, may explain the AT2024wpp event. Image: NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center/CI Lab.
A black hole probably ripped apart a massive star, creating an unprecedented cosmic flash
