Black holes are unusually dense objects. Gravity is so strong that even light cannot escape. This makes them difficult to see. But modern human tools can overcome it. It allows us to know where black holes are located in the universe, especially in the center of our Milky Way Galaxy. The existence of a supermassive black hole has been identified. (Supermassive black hole) called Sagittarius A* or Sgr A*. This giant black hole is 4 million times larger than the mass of the Sun, and is about 26,000 light-years away from Earth.
But recently, the research team was led by engineers from the French National Center for Scientific Research. The work at the Paris Observatory was observed on the European Space Agency's Gaia mission. In addition to data from the Very Large Telescope from the European Southern Sky Observatory and other ground-based observatories report the discovery of the largest stellar black hole in the Milky Way. The planet is named Gaia BH3, and its mass is 33 times that of the Sun. The team revealed that Gaia BH3 was discovered by chance in the Vulture constellation. This massive black hole was formed after the explosion of a star just 2,000 light-years from Earth.
The research team determined that Gaia BH3 is a black hole that may have formed after the death of a star with a mass more than 40 times the mass of the Sun. Black holes form as a result of the collapse of a single star, and are therefore called stellar black holes. It is also the second closest black hole to us yet discovered.
