The strange energy beam moves faster than the speed of light

A strange beam of plasma in the universe has features that are contrary to the laws of physics when it seems to move faster than the speed of light.

Galaxy M87 , merged by two other galaxies, spits out a large plasma light. Scientists believe that gas is sucked into a giant black hole at the center of the galaxy, then heated up and slowly sprayed it out, according to Muturism.

In 1918, astronomer Heber Curtis first saw a giant strip of light connecting the galaxy M87. By using measuring tools, Curtis estimates its length about 6,000 light-years.

The Hubble Space Telescope of the US Aeronautics Agency (NASA) oversees the expansion of light beams from 1995 to 1999. After four years of taking photos, scientists discovered plasma flow the outside moves faster than the plasma spurted from the black hole, meaning it must move faster than the speed of light.

In 2013, after 13 years of taking photos, the plasma light started moving in a spiral like a cork making it more and more mysterious.

Since the first observation of plasma light in the galaxy M87, astronomers have also noted a similar phenomenon occurring in many other galaxies. Although the cause of it is still a mystery, the collected data will help scientists understand how black holes create or destroy galaxies in the universe.

" We can see plasma light throughout a person's life. Everything is moving. Amazingly, its speed is remarkable for being so strong," said Eileen Meyer, a physicist at University of Baltimore Maryland, USA, said.
