RE: Mapping the Milky Way

in #science • 7 years ago

And then, there is, THE GREAT ATTRACTOR! at the center of the Milky Way. It is located at 26 degrees of Sagittarius. And, they have confirmed, it is a BLACK HOLE. I want to know more about this! Exciting!

    we have known this for a long time. There is a black hole at the center of every galaxy

      Yes, but not every one it the GREAT ATTRACTOR. Right?

          The Great Attractor is a gravitational anomaly in intergalactic space at the center of the Laniakea Supercluster that reveals the existence of a localised concentration of mass tens of thousands of times more massive than the Milky Way.
          just google it

            The first indications of a deviation from uniform expansion of the universe were reported in 1973 and again in 1978. The location of the Great Attractor was finally determined in 1986: it is situated at a distance of somewhere between 150 and 250 Mly (million light years) (47–79 Mpc) (the latter being the most recent estimate) from the Milky Way, in the direction of the constellations Triangulum Australe (The Southern Triangle) and Norma (The Carpenter’s Square).[2] While objects in that direction lie in the Zone of Avoidance (the part of the night sky obscured by the Milky Way galaxy) and are thus difficult to study with visible wavelengths, X-ray observations have revealed that the region of space is dominated by the Norma cluster (ACO 3627),[3][4] a massive cluster of galaxies containing a preponderance of large, old galaxies, many of which are colliding with their neighbours and/or radiating large amounts of radio waves.

            great attractor is just a title, and are you calling the center black hole here one of them?
