Detecting huge hollow black holes in the universe

Astronomers were astounded by the huge, empty black hole they had just discovered. What is remarkable in this giant black hole is that there are no visible forms of matter such as galaxies, planets, stars . In this giant black hole, there are no ordinary ' feeding ' black holes. .

If you know that the speed of light transmission is 300,000 km / sec, the empty space measured by the light to the km scale will be 9.6 billion billion km.

Those are the data published by the University of Minnesota research team on August 24. In fact, astronomers have been thinking about the possibility of existing hollow regions in the universe for years without any object. Such an empty black hole was found about two billion light-years from a new black hole.

But the black hole scientists have discovered, using two different types of astronomical observations, is a much larger hollow block than what they once imagined.

"This hollow black hole is 1,000 times bigger than what we expect to see ," said Professor Lawrence Rudnick, the author of the scientific report, which will be published in the Astronomy Magazine here. 'It is unclear whether we use the right words but this is a terrible surprise'.
