At the heart of the Milky Way lies Sagittarius A*, a supermassive black hole around which one of the universe’s fastest known stars is racing. This star, named S62, has stunned astronomers with its incredible orbital speed, reaching 8% of the speed of light over 15 million miles per hour.
Such extreme conditions create powerful distortions in space-time. S62 doesn’t just move quickly; it experiences time differently, running slower compared to the rest of the universe. This effect, known as gravitational time dilation, is a direct demonstration of Einstein’s general relativity in action. Watching S62 is like seeing Einstein’s ideas unfold before our very eyes.
The discovery of S62 proves that black holes are not only mysterious giants but also perfect laboratories for testing the deepest laws of physics. Every orbit this star makes helps scientists confirm the strange yet elegant truth of how space and time really work.

I will have less of a presence on The Torrid Tribe Community. We have very little activity here. This is a sign to me that members have found other social media resources that they are spending more time in. I am happy to see less censorship on social media in general. I started The Torrid Tribe 4 years ago when we were in a state of censorship and lockdowns. It was a difficult time and this was a haven and sanctuary for so many.
I will be lightly posting things here to give you all content to see. This community will always be open to everyone and will resurrect to its full capacity if subscribers show they want it fully operational again with full time administration.
Thank you for being a part of this community. Sending each of you hugs.

Passion is the vibe that I want to bring to this community. I want to enjoy your passion for whatever it is you are into. Let's share what we learn - and learn what each other shares. Foodies unite. I love to cook and share recipes. I will regularly post pictures and recipes are available upon request. I would enjoy discussing your past, present and future journeys. Nature is God and Mother Earth's exquisite gift to us. Share a picture and we will enjoy the beauty through your eyes. Let's get deep and consensual with great subjective matter. This is a non judgemental safe place to let everything hang out.
