For this reason black holes are invisible to the eye, as lightless as the empty, dark space surrounding them. Scientists know they exist not because they can see an actual hole, b ...

Sgr A*, in turn, is dwarfed by some supermassive black holes detected in other large galaxies such as one with a mass 6.5 billion times greater than that of the sun in a galaxy called Messier 87.
