⭐ Inside the dusty disks around massive stars are simple organic molecules like acetylene and methane. ⚛️ High resolution, mid-infrared spectroscopy can study molecules that have no pure rotational transitions in the sub-millimeter, providing new insights about the chemical inventory accessible to forming planets: https://go.nasa.gov/3dtcWKf

This fiendish specter lives in the center of the Milky Way, haunting our galaxy’s supermassive black hole. 👻 Our SOFIA Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy discovered magnetic fields that may be keeping the black hole quiet. https://go.nasa.gov/36PN89Y

This new view of the center of our Milky Way galaxy reveals details within the dense swirls of gas and dust.
It is helping scientists understand how massive stars are forming and what’s feeding the supermassive black hole at our galaxy’s core: https://go.nasa.gov/2ZToOhD

🌑 Some black holes are feasting, but the one at the heart of our Milky Way galaxy is starving.
🧲Magnetic fields appear to be sending material into an orbit around the black hole, not into it, preventing it from ingesting very much. This could explain why our black hole is quietly fasting while others are actively feasting. https://go.nasa.gov/2L0wk4l #BlackHoleFriday

🌀 Spiral magnetic fields around our galaxy’s black hole may be forcing material into an orbit around the black hole, not into it, keeping it quiet: https://go.nasa.gov/2smuepa
