NEWS : The existence of a central black hole

The verse begins with an oath due to the importance of the information it contains. It informs us that there is a black hole in space that encompasses everything in its scope without discriminating matter. The existence of black holes is the most important information obtained recently.

Black holes are invisible under normal conditions as they swallow even light. However, as a result of a reflection, they can be detected through the radiation they emit. This discovery, which was made at the end of long stages, was first theorised at the end of the 18th century, thanks to Isaac Newton’s discovery within the scope of the law of universal gravitation. In the early 21st century, with Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity, this idea was no longer a dream. In 1971, the Uhuru satellite scientifically proved the black hole by taking pulsed x-rays in the so-called “Cygnassx-1” space field. It took two centuries for people to reach this knowledge by passing on their own work to the next generation. The Holy Quran had given this news to humanity 1358 years before the discovery was made.
