Here's the Milkyway's Supermassive Black Hole, in Minecraft   Minecraft is a sandbox game, which sort of means that everything is possible in it. You can make other games, like Crossy Road, or make something massive and stunning like the Star Wars construction. It is also possible to investigate the mysteries of space - like the star-smashing black hole in the middle of our galaxy.      A player called SrMustard on Reddit built an interpretation of Sagittarius A* in the game. If you're not sure what that means, Sagittarius A* is a supermassive black hole, specifically, the one that Event Horizon Telescope revealed in an image May 12. It is located at the central point of our galaxy, The Milky Way, with a mass equivalent to 4,310,000 Suns. It is a black hole which means it's denser than a Minecraft Villager, and has suckers in light and other things. We're not going to be able to do justice to the majesty of this celestial object here however, you'll get the gist.      SrMustard created a model and posted it on PlanetMinecraft. It's not just a slapdash orange circle around a black orb to ponder and think about; lots of thought went into the design. SrMustard wanted to make it as realistic as possible. He included the Schwarzchild radius and the event horizon. This simulates the empty regions surrounding the black holes.      This is because, as you know the black hole draws everything around it, even light. Therefore, nothing can exist too close to it, or it will be drawn in and crushed. What happens then? It's likely to be a painful end however, we're not certain. MINECRAFT SERVER LIST This mystery is the reason for a variety of sci-fi films, including Interstellar and the classic Event Horizon, which lots of people watched too young and now live in fear of.      In less frightening news, you can make it so that Minecraft mobs look like adorable Lego figurines with an option that you can use if you wish to. They're all adorable except for the pig. We're pretty sure it was in Event Horizon.
