Milky Way, Black Hole

A Supermassive Black Hole Is on a Collision Course With The Milky Way
A Milky Way collision with a supermassive black hole might be closer than we thought. Hidden deep in the Large Magellanic Cloud dwarf galaxy that orbits the Milky Way on an ever-closing loop, signs of a massive invisible object clocking in at around 600,
Supermassive Black Hole Heading Towards The Milky Way Galaxy
The strange behavior of hypervelocity stars suggests a nearby dwarf galaxy must contain a supermassive black hole. If so, a collision with the Milky Way is inevitable.
ATLANTIC SKIES: How did our galaxy's black hole get so big?
Located approximately 27,000 light-years (one light year equals approximately nine trillion kilometres) from Earth — relatively close when it comes to galactic black holes — Sag A* has an estimated mass of about four million solar masses (one solar mass equals the mass of our sun).
Supermassive black hole, 6,00,000 times the mass of Sun, is heading towards the Milky Way. When is the collision likely to happen?
Astronomers have found a supermassive black hole in the Large Magellanic Cloud. This black hole is 600,000 times the mass of the Sun. The Large Magellanic Cloud may collide with the Milky Way in 2.4 billion years.
Tiny dwarf galaxy might house a supermassive black hole
Fast-moving stars zooming through our galaxy might have been slingshotted from a black hole inside the neighbouring Large Magellanic Cloud
The Largest 'Black Hole Jet' Discovered Is Estimated to Be Twice the Size of Our Milky Way
The Largest 'Black Hole Jet' Discovered Is Estimated to Be Twice the Size of Our Milky Way We know black holes to be mysterious regions in space where the gravitational pull is so strong that even light can't escape.
