Entire Swarm of Black Holes Detected Moving Through The Milky Way
In any globular cluster, all its stars formed at the same time, from the same cloud of gas. The Milky Way has around 150 known globular clusters; these objects are excellent tools for studying, for example, the history of the Universe, or the dark matter content of the galaxies they orbit.
Scientists find the biggest black hole jets — “we are talking about 140 Milky Way diameters”
The newly discovered black hole-driven jets extend over 7 megaparsecs or 23 million light-years.
Biggest black hole jets ever seen span 140 Milky Way galaxies
An artist's illustration of the longest black hole jet system ever observed. Nicknamed Porphyrion after a mythological Greek giant, these jets span roughly 7 megaparsecs, or 23 million light- years. That is equivalent to lining up 140 Milky Way galaxies back-to-back. Credit: E. Wernquist / D. Nelson (IllustrisTNG Collaboration) / M. Oei
Black hole jets equivalent to 140 Milky Way galaxies discovered coming from far-away galaxy
Black hole jets equivalent to 140 Milky Way galaxies discovered coming from far-away galaxyCalTech With only 117 in MLB history, an immaculate inning is rarer than a no-hitter. What to expect during perimenopause, including lesser-known symptoms and how long this phase lasts.
Swarm of black holes detected moving through Milky Way’s star cluster
In around a billion years, the cluster is expected to dissolve entirely, leaving behind only black holes orbiting the Milky Way's centre.
Black hole is starving its host galaxy of star-forming fuel
Astronomers have detected a supermassive black hole starving its galaxy of gas, halting star formation in the early universe.
Astronomers Theorize There’s a Cluster of Black Holes Moving Around Our Galaxy
Black holes hold some of the universe’s greatest mysteries, with giant empty spots in space sucking in whatever enters their gravitational pull. However, the mystery is now growing as astronomers are now saying there could be a swarm of black holes moving across the Milky Way.
A Black Hole Was Observed Creating the Largest Cosmic Megastructure Ever Seen
Black holes suck in anything and everything that comes near them, even light cannot escape after crossing one of their event horizons, However they also produce massive outflows of plasma and one of those astrophysical jets just produced the largest megastructure ever observed.
