A star met a violent end in a galaxy far, far away — about 600 million light-years from Earth. It wandered too close to a black hole and was ripped apart in a bright burst of light.

Astronomers have used the Hubble Space Telescope to find evidence of an elusive kind of black hole, one that's about 8,000 times more massive than our sun.

Now, astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope have observed a black hole in the act of devouring a star, ripping it apart and creating a huge burst of radiation.
