Does this remind anyone else of Hillary Clinton?
From CNET:
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, aka TESS, caught a rare event called a tidal disruption, which is the scientific term for a black hole ripping a star to shreds as it consumes it. It's basically pure destruction on a mind-blowing scale.
Astronomers says this type of cosmic carnage only happens once every 10,000 to 100,000 years in a galaxy the size of the Milky Way. Because there are billions more galaxies in the universe, scientists have been able to catch about 40 such events so far, but it's still tough to spot one.
Like Hillary, it shreds lots of balls (of hot gas, in this instance) and sucks everything up in it's black hole. And like the Clinton Crime Syndicate, it's enormously hard to catch on tape.
