Researchers have generated computer simulations of black holes chewing up wayward stars like a “messy toddler.”<br /><br />The vast amounts of matter, packed into a small area, take a few “bites” before flinging “leftovers” across the galaxy.<br /><br />The phenomenon happens where gravity is so strong even light can’t escape, making them invisible.<br /><br />“After each passage, they lose more mass, causing a flair of light as it’s ripped apart. Each flare is brighter than the last, creating a signature that might help astronomers find them, “ lead author Fulya Kiroglu, PhD student at Northwestern University, said.
