Scientists discover super massive black hole with mass of 17 billion suns

외딴 은하에서 태양 질량 170억배 블랙홀 발견
A team of scientists from the U.S. and Germany has discovered an enormous black hole with a mass equivalent to 17 billion suns.
The black hole is located in the center of a galaxy that is 200 million light-years away from Earth,... a region of space where nothing, including light, can escape because of the strong gravitational effects.
The scientists speculate that a collision of two black holes created the super massive cosmic entity.
The discovery was published in the latest edition of Nature Magazine.
