Cygnus X-1's Jet Measurement
Cygnus X-1 is a binary system with a black hole and a blue supergiant star.
Jet power equals 10,000 suns with speeds of 355 million mph.
Jets carry 10% of energy from matter falling into the black hole.
New method uses computer modeling for instantaneous jet observations.
Prabu plans to apply technique to other black holes.
