Black Holes Accretion Disk

Please FDEV! use the real appearance if you have in mind add acretion disk for super massive Black Holes like this:

This image is the result of 800 equations (Kip Thorne & his team) used to render the real appearance of "Gargantua" before making it friendlier for the film.

This feature will make ED a little bit awesome.

I support your initiative, Shemuev! In fact I've always thought the same as you.

It must be in the game!
 
Totally support!!! It'd be an awesome feature!!

I would also suggest some terrific threat when approaching one of them, like extreme overheating or the impossibility to escape once the event horizon is crossed, falling inevitably to your destruction. Black Holes should be space objects to be feared and avoided.

Very good idea.
 
It would be a great addition, not only acretion disk with black holes but with other type of stars, like neutron stars and white dwarfs and his companions.
 
I dream of seeing these things and others like the transfer of matter between binary stars, for example. Very good suggestion.
 
FDEV announces they are working in more changes for astronomical objects after 2.2, i hope accretion disk are one of them. Meanwhile contribute with this kind of threads could help them to collect ideas.

Remember, the example is the model used for Interestellar, a model build for Kip Throne and his team, deeply worked, and the image is the result of a big amount of real theoretical equations for black holes. The image is the real result, which was not used for the film because are very confusing for the common audience.
 
True, but the model was based on a supermassive black hole, of which ED currently only has one of, Sag A. I hope they would add accretion discs also to other appropriate bodies, close binary systems with regular stars that orbit white dwarves, black holes, neutron stars.

Not only supermassives black holes could have an accretion disk, another black holes with 10 or more M☉ could have an accretion disk, less spectacular but an accretion disk at least.

Yes I do mention this is the post you just quoted, and I agree with you. IF they added accretion disks. they could do it with all kinds of objects.

While we are on the subject of cool things that should be in the game, I wonder if there will ever be a Thorne-Zytkow Object added in or if there is one already.

I am curious to see what a red giant with a neutron star core would look like.......
