    Black hole jets measured for first time and rival the power of 10,000 suns

    Scientists measured black hole jets from Cygnus X-1 using a planet-sized radio telescope network, revealing they emit energy equivalent to 10,000 Suns and travel at half light speed. By observing how stellar winds from a nearby supergiant star interact with these jets, researchers calculated their power for the first time.
