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,
James Webb Telescope Reveals a Dazzling Light Show From the Milky Way’s Black Hole
Unpredictable bursts of light are pulsing from the debris surrounding Sagittarius A*, offering new insights into the mysterious behavior of the most massive object in our galaxy
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.
Why are 'fireworks' coming from a black hole? This is what scientists say
A team of astrophysicists have found flares of light in Sagittarius A*, a supermassive black hole in the center of the Milky Way.
Webb telescope finds Milky Way black hole never stops strobing light
A new James Webb Space Telescope study finds that Sagittarius A*, the Milky Way's central black hole, constantly emits light from its swirling accretion disk.

Astronomers Spot ‘Fireworks’ Display Near Milky Way’s Black Hole
Astronomers have spotted displays of flashing lights and “fireworks” near a supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy, a finding researchers said could reveal details about how black holes—among the most mysterious objects in space—behave and interact with their environment.
NASA’s Webb Telescope Reveals a Never-Ending Cosmic Firestorm at the Center of the Milky Way
Observations revealed ongoing fireworks featuring short bursts and longer flares. Imagine solar flares, but magnified to an unimaginable scale — a continuous sparkle bright enough to shine across 26,000 light-years of space.
Webb Telescope Catches Unpredictable Black Hole Fireworks!
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope captured the most detailed view of Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at our galaxy’s center. It revealed constant, unpredictable flares, with smaller bursts caused by turbulence and larger ones from magnetic collisions.
