First Infrared Flare-Up Detected From The Milky Way’s Supermassive Black Hole
Sagittarius A* is the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way. As supermassive black holes go, it is fairly quiet. It’s not creating any galaxy-wide tantrums that should worry us. It does flare up though,
Astronomers Say the ‘Little Red Dots’ Discovered by the JWST Could Be Glowing Due to Supermassive Black Holes
LRDs, or Little Red Dots, were discovered in the first months after the James Webb Space telescope was turned on. However, since then they have perplexed scientists about what they are and what is causing the light.
