Black Hole Star: A New Cosmic Body Discovered
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have discovered a new type of cosmic body: a 'black hole star'. This object, named MoM-BH-1*, is as large as the entire Solar System and emits energy about 100 billion times greater than all normal stars from a distance of several billion light-years. Unlike other red spots observed, the black hole at the center of MoM-BH-1* has almost completely obscured its host galaxy; only the light of this black hole star is visible. Scientists suspect that these objects could be the seeds of today's supermassive black holes.4 sourcesSee all sources
