The largest black holes in the universe

When it comes to black holes lurking at the center of galaxies, we refer to some real 'monsters' that are millions to billions of times more massive than the masses of stars.

The dense objects of the universe are thought to compress too many objects inside a narrow area, causing light to escape and bind the constellations in its orbit around it.

American experts believe that the galaxy PKS 0745-19 is containing a black hole "super super".

Many galaxies, not the whole, are home to giant black holes in the center, and our Milky Way is no exception.

The Milky Way's black hole, named Sgr A *, is estimated to have about 4 million stars. It sounds very impressive, but it lags far behind when compared to "super-super" black holes, which have a mass ratio of 10 to 40 billion suns, according to Chandra's X-ray Observatory. Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) with the support of other tools.

While examining 18 clusters of galaxies, Chandra detected intense light streams emanating from the 10 brightest galaxies, such as the PKS elliptical galaxy 0745-19 .

'The results show that there may be many "super -giant " black holes in the universe compared to previous estimates , "Space.com quoted Stanford University team leader Julie Hlavacek-Larrondo.

If confirmed, the results of the study play an important role in understanding the formation and evolution of black holes along the time of the universe, according to expert Hlavacek-Larrondo.
