The giant black hole becomes "hungry and greedy"

The Arch Tower A, a bright area and a very powerful radio source, is located at the center of the Milky Way, in a larger area called Arch A, and the Arch A * has a supermassive black hole.

Invisible black holes are already ranked among the most evil phenomena in the universe, so the information related to them can be disturbing.

Astronomers observing the massive object in space revealed that the massive black hole of the Milky Way had been increasingly hungry in recent months and consumed a "substance" nearby at an unprecedented speed, according to the Guardian.

"We have not seen anything like it for 24 years as we study the huge black hole," said Andrea Giz, professor of physics and astronomy at the University of California at Los Angeles. Angeles. We know why he recently bought it. "

In the last study, the team analyzed more than 13,000 observations of the giant black hole observed during 133 nights since 2003, through Keck observatories in Hawaii and the large southern European observatory in Chile.

According to Gees, the team discovered that on May 13, the area outside the black spot of the black hole was twice as bright at the next sighting. It also saw significant changes two more nights this year, taking into account that these three changes were "unprecedented". Instance. "

The team also used a technique called "hologram" to reactivate the scary 24-year observation process, from which it concluded that the level of luminosity observed this year was unprecedented over the past year. quarter of century.

Mark Morris, professor of physics and astronomy at the same university and co-author of the study, whose findings appear in the journal Astronomical Journal Letters, asked the following question: "The big question is to to know if the black hole enters a new phase.

According to one theory, this enormous luminosity at the level of the giant black hole could be linked to the approach of the S-0-2 to the black hole during the summer of 2018, and that the huge amounts of gas emitted by the 39, star could have reached Sagittarius A * this year.

A second possible theory concerns the strange astronomical object known as J2, supposed to be a binary star system, which approached the black hole in 2014.

According to Gees, he thinks that the black hole has stripped J2 of its outer layer.

A third theory is that a number of large asteroids could have fallen into the black hole.

It should be noted that the black hole in the center of Sagittarius is approximately 26 000 light-years from Earth and does not pose a direct threat to the blue planet.
