Implemented a week or so ago, but still not finished (you may notice the old stars). Thin rotating accretion disk around the black hole at different exposures:


vs Interstellar movie:

Somehow SE future version(s) and this movie are soo connected cry

Thank You Space Engineer! You are truly awesome! And thank you Mr Nolan: You are truly awesome too! Imagine what SpaceEngineer could do if he had Nolan's team, NASA scientists and budget at his disposal surprised

I think that has more to do with reality than anything else. Such an effect has been known about for quite some time.

Yeah, the light ray pathing is not new at all. Interstellar's rendition isn't fully relativistically accurate either (no gravitational redshift, doppler shift, beaming, etc). But it still looks damn nice and is the closest to a realistic depiction we've ever had in a major film. It's cool that they hired a big name in space-time physics to help them out rather than just wing it or rehash what we've seen before in other popular media.

It's visually pleasing and all that, but I think there are some premises for that movie that I don't quite accept.

It's a non-existent conspiracy that crazy right-wing Americans think exists.

I don't believe in conspiracy theories. I know they're all part of a secret plan made by the government to make us believe in conspiracies.
