Look! Astronomers Have Never Seen A Pair Of Supermassive Black Holes So Close Together

Two supermassive black holes are spiraling towards a collision, offering insights into future cosmic events like those expected in our own galaxy.

New image of supermassive black hailed 'milestone in astronomy'

Scientists captured an image of Sagittarius A* revealing strong magnetic fields.

The image uses polarized light to show twisting magnetic fields around the black hole.

Scientists Capture Amazing Image of Black Hole at Center of Our Galaxy

The team captured an image of Sagittarius A* using the Event Horizon Telescope, showing magnetic fields

The image suggests similarities between Sagittarius A* and the black hole in the M87 galaxy, including the presence of strong, organized magnetic fields

Supermassive black hole at our galaxy center looks like a football

The supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy, Sagittarius A*, is spinning so fast that it warps spacetime and takes on the shape of a football.

Researchers used a new method, called the 'outflow method', to estimate the mass and spin rate of Sagittarius A*, using data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and the National Science Foundation's Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA).
