9/ We even have a supermassive black hole at the center of our Milky Way galaxy! It's name is Sgr A* ("Sagittarius A-star") and it's about 4 million solar masses, which makes it medium-sized in supermassive black hole terms.
The Event Horizon Telescope took a picture of it in radio light last year, and it is such a gorgeous lumpy orange donut 🤩 #OurBlackHole #blackHoles #BlackHoleFriday #astronomy #astrophysics #space
