Moore understands the expansion of 'commodity frontiers' as a socio-ecological process, defining a frontier as a "zone beyond which further expansion is possible" [23].
The exact process remains unknown, however, and astrophysicists had thought that only the event horizon surrounding a black hole--the rotating circular zone beyond which nothing can escape, not even light--could produce jets of x-rays on such a scale.
