Proven to be a black hole in our galaxy, one of probably many
have always been something that fascinated us, ever since Karl Schwarzchild theorized their existence in 1916. Back then it was an explanation to resolve Einstein’s theory of General Relativity. Later, in the middle of the 20th century, astronomers detected black holes by how they affected the celestial bodies around them. In the 1980s scientists studied supermassive black holes which reside in the most massive galaxies in the universe.
This made it the nearest black hole to our solar system and implies the existence of many dormant black holes in our galaxy.
