Scientists Found A Black Hole Which Is 100,000 Times Bigger Than The Sun .

Scientists Found 100, 000 Times Bigger Black Hole Than The Sun Near The Center Of Milky Way. 

-Crazy Facts Of Cosmology. 


Newly discovered black hole is one lakh times bigger than the sun. It is surrounded by the cloud of poisonous gas. If this discovery is verified then this black hole is the second largest black hole found in the Milky Way. Sagittarius -A is the biggest black hole which is found in the center of planetarium.

Growing supermassive black hole in distant galaxy. 
The recent research has shown  supermassive black hole are essential to the creation of galaxies, stars and even life itself.

Astronomers of Keio University Of Tokyo Of Japan studied a cloud of gases through ALMA telescope in Chile .This cloud is 200 light years away from the  center of the Milky Way and spread in the range of 150 billion kilometers.

Professor Tomoharu Oka of Keio university,who led the research from the ALMA observatory in northem Chile, said the void's relatively small size means it is the first to be identified as an intermediate black hole(IMBH).

The IMBH is the second largest black hole discovered in the Milky Way next to Sagittarius A*, which is 400 million times the size  of our Sun.

According to theories, the Milky Way should be home to about 100 million smaller black holes, but only 60 have been found.

In simple terms, intermediate black holes are the missing link in black hole evolution and will help scientists to gain a better understanding on their formation.

They already understand how stellar mass black holes are formed the result of a supernova death.

Prof Oka believes black holes greater than a million solar masses are at the center of all galaxies and are essential to their growth.

The origins of supermassive black hole, however, remain a mystery.

Prof Oka said: -"One possible scenario is IMBHs which are formed by runaway coalescence of stars in young compact star clusters merge at the center of a galaxy to form a supermassive black hole. "

They also understand the final outcome in the form of supermassive black holes, but their has been confusion around the stages in between the black holes inception and its final outcome, with nowhere in the middle yet to be discovered.
