Fastest-Growing Black Hole’s Diet Consists of One Sun Per Day
For the first time ever, the universe’s fastest-growing black hole has been measured and it’s a biggun. The hole itself, called J2157, was discovered two years ago by astronomers at the Australian National University (ANU).
Now, the astronomers have measured J2157 and have discovered that its mass is 34 billion times bigger than our Earth’s sun, and devours the equivalent of our sun each single day.
Their study was published on Wednesday in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
