Complete Record: Explains current interpretations of black holes and quasars using live action, animation, laser effects, and computer graphics. Describes research which indicates that black holes originated as novae and that the high energy emission of quasars are the result of the intense gravity of nearby black holes. Comments on speculation about time travel and the likelihood of the solar system ever colliding with a black hole. Features Isaac Asimov., Through a dazzling array of special effects, the camera takes us on a simulated voyage through the cosmos. We seek out and explore two of the universe's most baffling mysteries, black holes and quasars. These phenomena are intimately bound up in the lives and deaths of millions of stars, yet we still know little about their nature. Black holes are areas of incredibly concentrated gravitational fields so strong that even light cannot escape them. Quasars are light sources thousands of times more brilliant than the brightest stars.NOTE: Two (or more) records have been merged together to create this data.
