Scientists Find The Most Massive Stellar Black Hole Ever Detected in The Milky Way Galaxy

After detecting an unusual wobble in space, astronomers were led to a new discovery in our own Milky Way—the massive stellar black hole known as Gaia BH3. Located about 2,000 light-years away in the constellation of Aquila, the Eagle, Gaia BH3 is currently the most massive stellar black hole identified within our galaxy. Despite sensational headlines, its considerable distance makes it completely harmless to our solar system.

The discovery was made through data from the European Space Agency’s Gaia mission, aimed at creating a 3D map of a billion stars. Analysts noticed a peculiar motion in one of the stars caused by the gravitational effects of Gaia BH3, which is an astounding 33 times the mass of our Sun. This colossal mass is concentrated into a point in space so dense that it bends the fabric of space itself.

Further measurements confirmed that Gaia BH3's companion star orbits it every 11.6 years and showed no signs of disruption from a supernova, indicating that the black hole formed long before capturing its stellar companion.

Gaia BH3, alongside other findings, could potentially revolutionize our understanding of black hole formation and behavior. This discovery invites astronomers worldwide to further investigate these cosmic giants, paving the way for new insights into the fundamental processes of our universe.

Sorry to disappoint everyone, including the Host. This place we call Earth is a Locked System nothing can come nor leave this place. Oh by the way Space doesn’t exist it only exists on TV

Subscribed. (Clear and to the point explanation).

I wonder what Ton 168 has for breakfast. That’s one serious Blackhole in comparison to the extremely large Sag A in the Milky Way. How can it weigh more than the Milky Way when the Milky Way is one of the 10% heaviest in the known universe. Can you imagine the time dilation around Ton 168. In fact, I’m going to Google it right now!

So even in the universe the bigger fish eats the smaller one. Ok, that's easy to understand.

I'm watching this video to know more about my current event article about this very black hole!!!

[MartinBlaha]

I love your videos. Thank you ❤
A question: if those black hole giants grow by eating other black holes and stars, shouldn't we see less mass around them?

I love mankinds quest for knowledge, but whenever I see stuff about the scale of the universe, I wish we didn’t know anything about it. Even the little we do know makes me feel nauseous.

[Johnnytotal]

I have to watch this againg, to maybe wrap my brain around it . .

[xspence]

Very interesting. Wish we humans could know more about them but i guess we are still just starting out in our technological development and understanding of the universe.

[HBGarden]

Holy Crap ! Can we even wrap our heads around this BH 3 Stuff?

[emmanueladeyosoye]

When I see this it shows how we are so insignificant

Do Black Holes ever "die" for lack of a better term? I ask that because the James Webb Space Telescope keeps finding new galaxies way further than what we previously thought was possible which is sort of throwing off the time frame generally given for the Big Bang. By that I mean the universe is at least twice as old as we previously thought. If correct and if black holes never die, will the universe at some point be so full of black holes that it becomes a problem for other star systems to develop or are the distances of these events so far apart that it's not currently or ever will be a high traffic situation involving black holes?

I thought Sagittarius A* is the biggest black hole in our galaxy...

[intotron]

How can the companion be a giant? If it is about 10 billion years old and still a 'normal' star, it can only have a mass similar to our sun. If the mass would be significantly higher the star would already have ended fusion and terminated as a white dwarf. Which it clearly is not, I guess Gaia can not see a white dwarf at 200 light years distant.

If the super nova explosion is symmetrical, then similar solar systems should exist

[xi]

Imagine if TON would collide at a straight line with Phoenix 1A black hole . Imagine if they would fly at each other at the speed of light .
The 'explosion' would be so massive that it would destroy the universe itself

[mrhassell]

The Sun, The Moon, Earth and even me and you "bend the fabric of space itself". That is what General Relativity teaches us!

[engineersteveo]

One might speculate that the supernova explosion that left the black hole would be symmetrical

[sherriable]

Chill ton618 we dont want no beef. Here we can give you your space

[markdowse]

Just need to add the words "So Far..." to the title! 😁
The more we look, the more we find... Great stuff. 👍 Brilliant video. 💎
