If you look at the Milky Way galaxy, it’s this interesting balance point that this place where it’s just enough to wash from the black whole to keep things interesting to possibly make the environment that allows us to exist here.

Astronomers are eagerly awaiting a spectacular firework display as a super massive black hole, the center of our galaxy…

For the coming months, across the world, astronomers will be turning their telescopes towards the center of the Milky Way, ready to be awed by the historic chance to witness a black hole sitting down to feet. … for us to climb with this interstellar distant gasp.

It’s the combination of a 40 year journey to get closer to the tantalizing age between the universe we can see and understand. And that place of extreme that will forever be unseen and unknowable.

We tend to think of black holes as these incredibly destructive chaotic objects but now we understand that they are actually integral parts of why galaxies are the way they are.

20 years ago black holes are seen as possible ornaments in the middle of a galaxy. Now we know that they may be the absolute shin and the driving force for the eventual size and possibly the shape of the galaxy.

The story of black holes that began as just an idea. It sprang out of pure human thought and mathematics. And it first seemed to be too outrageous to be possible. And over time we’ve learnt that not only these things out there they play as vital, important role, we are still learning about, we are still discovering everyday about super massive black holes and what they do in the universe. Who knows what we will ultimately find out about the ultimate.
