: The “wobbling” of a star has alerted researchers to a particularly enormous black hole in the Milky Way, reported German news agency .
The black hole, named Gaia BH3, has about 33 times the mass of our sun. Stellar black holes in the Milky Way measure on average only 10 times the mass of the sun. The previously largest known – Cygnus X-1 – has about 21 solar masses. The ESO says the black hole is extremely close to Earth at a distance of “only” 2,000 light years. A light year is the distance that light travels in one year – a distance of 9.46 trillion kilometres.
