Absence. The void. I just don't get it, personally. Never have. Then again…maybe I do.
''A black hole is cosmic phenomenon whose gravitational pull is so strong that – within a certain distance of it – nothing can escape, not even light. Although black holes are notorious for devouring any matter that gets too close, these cosmic behemoths may have a nurturing side, too.
Using data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and other telescopes, researchers discovered a black hole that has sparked star formation in multiple galaxies across tremendous distances.
"This is the first time we've seen a single black hole boost star birth in more than one galaxy at a time," Roberto Gilli, lead author of the study and a researcher from the National Institute of Astrophysics (INAF) in Bologna, Italy, said in a statement from the Chandra X-ray Observatory. "It's amazing to think one galaxy's black hole can have a say in what happens in other galaxies millions of trillions of miles away."''
