SMALL GALAXY WITH BLACK HOLE FOUND |
Astronomers, led by an Indian origin scientist, have discovered a monster black hole lurking
inside one of the tiniest and densest galaxies ever known located 54 million
light years from Earth. Though the black
hole is five times the mass of the black hole at the centre of our Milky
way, It is inside a galaxy that crams
140 million stars within a diameter of about 300 light-years, only V500th of our galaxy’s diameter. The dwarf galaxy containing the black
hole, called M60-UCD1, is the densest galaxy ever seen If you lived
inside of it, the night sky would dazzle
with a million stars as opposed to 4,000 stars in our night-time sky
