NASA just witnessed something come OUT of a black hole.
"Two of NASA’s space telescopes, including the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR), miraculously observed a black hole’s corona “launched” away from the supermassive black hole. Then a massive pulse of X-ray energy spewed out."
Granted, it happened a loooooooon time ago, because said black hole is 243 million light years away. But still, that's some serious E36 M3. Wonder what it was.
No worries it's just the universe pooping.

I'm saying it was the Reapers emerging to go on their cyclic purge of all advanced life forms. (It's a Mass Effect reference)

Couldn't have been a Biturbo because that would require two objects because something would have to tow the Biturbo.

Grab the Normandy and meet me at the Sol Relay.

I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favorite thread on the Citadel.
243 million years ago some of the early dinosaurs were wandering around. Roughly the size of Labrador Retrievers.
That's a LOOONG time back!
um, that is clearly the death star. Did you guys even click the link to look at the pictures?

Good thing we still have plenty of artillery.
Maybe the black hole accidentally sucked in some Taco Bell. It's a really effective colon cleanse.
Could be VGER. Or the Borg is on the move.

That's how this place works. If you don't troll within the first 5 replies, someone has beaten you to it.

Their natural state is at rest unless excited. In this case, wouldn't excited mean some sort of mass explosion, so yeah, I suppose a Biturbo could come out, since it is the only way to make one move.
I was hoping it was Laurence Fishburn and the Event Horizon.
