As space exploration continues at full speed, scientists today announced a new discovery. The international team of experts is the neighboring galaxy of our own galaxy, the Milky Way. in the Large Magellanic Cloud said they had discovered a small and inactive black hole.

Comparing the discovery to “finding a needle in a haystack,” scientists said their discovery was made by the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope. In his observations 6 years ago executed. In addition, the team that made the discovery was a team best known for disproving several black hole discoveries.

The black hole’s location shows why the discovery is called “finding a needle in a haystack”:

While scientists continue to work on inactive black holes, they haven’t found any concrete evidence so far. These black holes are usually high level x-ray they do not emit radiation. For this reason, these black holes are considered ‘dormant’. Discovery of inactive black holes is also very difficult because they are inactive. Because these black holes don’t affect their environment as much as other black holes.

While the newly discovered black hole doesn’t sound scary because it’s inactive, it still has the mass of our sun. at least nine times owned. Also black hole It has 25 times the mass of our sun It revolves around a hot, blue star.

The animation of the black hole and the star it revolves around is made as follows:
