Here is how Astronomers discovered the largest black hole ever known

Join us as we delve into the groundbreaking discovery of the largest black hole ever detected by astronomers. With a mass of 30 billion suns, this ultramassive black hole has been found at the center of a galaxy located hundreds of millions of light-years from Earth. Learn about the technique of gravitational lensing, which allowed astronomers to uncover this cosmic monster, and how it could revolutionize our understanding of black holes. Don't miss out on this fascinating journey into the far reaches of the universe.

There is one thing that bothers me about supermassive black holes, when did they have the time to grow so large? In space, matter is not readily available. And the space was always expanding. So, a black hole can only feed on local stuff. Could it be that supermassive black holes are primordial? We look back in time billions of years and we still see supermassive black holes. This means they appeared pretty fast after the Big Bang, right? But if that is the case, it means tons of matter was consumed in the formation of supermassive black holes. How much matter? Do we even know? Could it be that most matter was consumed by black holes? Is it possible that besides Dark Matter, Black hole matter is more abundant than we thought?

This BH is nowhere close to being the largest known. The only story here is how it was detected.
