European Southern Observatory via APto Earth's solar system has been discovered by a team of astronomers who say it was hiding in plain sight only about 1,011 light-years away.
An illustration shows the orbits of the objects in the HR 6819 triple system. The group is made up of an inner binary with one star, orbit in blue, and a newly discovered black hole, orbit in red, as well as a third star in a wider orbit, blue. The team originally believed there were only two objects, but as they analyzed their observations, they revealed a third, previously undiscovered body - a black hole, the closest ever found to Earth.
