Uncommon celestial event of the 'Malefic Twin Black Moon' will materialize within a few days, providing an astronomical spectacle associated with the prophecy of 'end times'
The celestial realm has been abuzz with the upcoming appearance of a rare phenomenon known as the "Black Moon." This enigmatic lunar event, often referred to as the ominous "evil twin" of a new moon, occurs once every three years.
In essence, a black moon is a calendar quirk that happens when a second new moon rises within a single calendar month. According to Walter Freeman, associate teaching professor of physics at Syracuse University, it's just a second new moon that occurs in one calendar month. Unlike a full moon, a new moon passes between Earth and the sun, making it invisible to the naked eye.
While the black moon has been widely linked to biblical passages such as Mark 13:24, which speaks of a darkened sun and a moon that does not give its light, scientists and astronomers have debunked superstitious claims about the black moon.
Meanwhile, the astronomical community is ablaze with another cosmic enigma: the mysterious interstellar object, object 3I/ATLAS. This celestial body is being suggested to be a piece of "possibly hostile" alien technology by a group of scientists, led by Harvard astrophysics professor Avi Loeb.
Spotted on 1 July, object 3I/ATLAS is the fastest rock our solar system has ever seen, traveling at roughly 245,000 kilometres per hour. IMBHs, or intermediate-mass black holes, are often hard to spot and are often confused with clusters of smaller black holes left over from collapsed stars. However, researchers think IMBHs may hide behind small groups of stars that closely orbit them without being ripped apart.
A recent discovery captivated the world when an IMBH was observed ripping apart a star. This rare event, captured by NASA, showcases a pitch-dark sky as the perfect backdrop for enjoying the summer stars and the Milky Way galaxy.
Despite the captivating celestial spectacle, the black moon spectacle will not be visible to stargazers and astronomy fanatics this time around. The Moon, Earth's only natural satellite, measures 2,158 miles across, roughly 0.27 times the diameter of Earth.
As we continue to unravel the mysteries of the universe, one thing remains certain: the cosmos continues to amaze and intrigue us, offering a vast playground for scientific exploration and discovery.
