An unexpected byproduct of making the new movie Interstellar; they used real physics to model the black hole, with hundreds of terabytes of data and a huge rendering farm, probably the most computing power ever thrown at a real astronomical simulation. The result is apparently the most accurate model yet of what a black hole looks like. Which turns out to be a little different from expectations:

No idea if the movie is any good, but at least some parts of the science should be right.
