Black holes are known as destructive forces in the universe. But astronomers have witnessed a black hole that is actually helping to nurture and spark the birth of baby stars across multiple galaxies more than one million light-years from its origin.
Astronomers made the discovery using NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory, along with other telescopes. They found the black hole at the center of a galaxy located 9.9 billion light-years from Earth, and the galaxy itself has seven galactic neighbors.
Their findings published this week in the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics. A new type of black hole has been discovered and it may be the smallest ever, astronomers say"This is the first time we've seen a single black hole boost star birth in more than one galaxy at a time," said Roberto Gilli, study author at the National Institute of Astrophysics in Bologna, Italy.
