Media

Now Hollywood movies are being confused with science.
"In a paper published yesterday to the journal Classical and Quantum Gravity, Thorne and Double Negative chief scientist Oliver James published the code used to create Interstellar's black hole, Gargantua, and demonstrated how it could be readily adapted for scientific research"
Maybe the code to render elves can be used to study elves.
"But with any luck, we won't remain blinded to the majesty of real life black holes for too much longer. Astronomers from institutes across the world are combining the power of thirteen radio telescopes to produce the first ever image of a black hole, or, more specifically, it's event horizon, the outer boundary. The project, called the Event Horizon Telescope, aims to have an image in three years."
Maybe this will be valuable because it won't show anything since black holes don't exist.
