Covid was incidental. Earlier it was reported that from 9-15 April, the capital saw a total of 24 Covid related deaths which was highest in India.

He said, "In most of these cases, patients had serious illnesses for a long time and Covid was incidental. But, any death is unfortunate, and it should not happen".

When asked if any special arrangements are being considered for schools and children in view of the Covid cases, the minister said, no such step was being planned as of now. "We are telling teachers that if students have cough and cold, those children should be advised to take rest.

We will appeal to parents to not send their children to school if they have such symptoms," he said. On the Delhi government's preparedness to fight the Covid pandemic, Bharadwaj said, "We have all our arrangements in place, including Covid beds, oxygen beds, ICU beds, oxygen supply and others." Meanwhile, some top government experts monitoring the Covid situation in the country has said that the cases may start dropping to 1,000-2,000 per day starting 15 May.

NASA’s new black hole video is both terrifying and astonishing
black holes actually are.“These monsters lurk in the centers of most big galaxies, including our own Milky Way, and contain between 100,000 and tens of billions of times more mass than our Sun,” NASA shares in an explanation of the video, adding that the animation “highlights the ‘super’ in supermassive black holes.”The video, released by the agency’s Goddard Space Flight Center Conceptual Image Lab, shows the gargantuan scale of black holes in comparison to other celestial features, most notably the Sun.Viewers are treated to a mind-bending comparison of how these black holes compare in size to our solar system and to each other.In just over 90 seconds, the animation tours 10 black holes of increasing size. Some of the holes are so big they make our solar system look like a speck of dust.“Only one of these colossal objects resides in our own galaxy, and it lies 26,000 light-years away,” the agency wrote, referring to supermassive black hole Sagittarius A*, which was first photographed just last year.Real and conceptual images of black holes don’t actually show the black hole itself, but rather a luminous disc surrounding the hole that’s comprised of gas and dusk, called an “accretion disc.”This immensely hot disc is swirly rapidly around the black hole and while some of it will fall in and never be seen again, most of it gets spit back out.“Black holes are terrible at eating things.
