It’s not every day that scientists find evidence that a massive black hole is eating a galaxy. It’s even cooler when the galaxy happens to be only 10 million light-years away from Earth!
Massive Black Hole Eats Galaxy Close to Earth!

Black Holes and the Center of Galaxies
Most of us are familiar with the idea that within this galaxy, we live in our own solar system – the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth, etc. However, our galaxy is much larger than our own solar system. In fact, did you know that a black hole is likely at the center of our own Milky Way Galaxy ?
The Formation of Stellar Mass Black Holes
Did you know that not all black holes come from a star? Those that do actually have a special name – the stellar black hole. But what does the formation of a stellar mass black hole consist of?
The Man Who Discovered Cosmic Black Holes: Karl Schwarzschild
It was in the year 1916 that a man named Karl Schwarzschild began to prove the existence of black holes based on the research of scientists like Albert Einstein, among others. But who exactly is Karl Schwarzschild, anyway, and how did he come to discover the existence of black holes?
Black Holes: Complex Physics Cause Mass Matter Absorption
It is commonly thought that one way a Black Hole can form is by the death of a star. If the remaining mass is right, it will form a black hole. Black Holes can be seen by what they do to the space, matter, time and gravity around them as they are warped and dragged, screaming into oblivion.
