Webb telescope reveals rapid growth of primordial black hole

Quick Summary:

WASHINGTON : At the heart of our Milky Way galaxy lurks a supermassive black hole about four million times the mass of the sun, called Sagittarius A*.

In fact, these objects, which increase in mass over time by eating material that wanders too close, reside at the center of most galaxies.

Material siphoned from the deformed nearby star (left) is pictured swirling around the black hole (right), as the third star (top right) shines in the distance.
