Scientists discovered the oldest Black Hole size 10 million times bigger than our Sun
of reports Accordingthis black hole was found inside one of the earliest galaxies ever discovered. The name of this galaxy was earlier EGSY8p7, which was later changed to CEERS_1019. Researchers think that this discovery can solve many difficult questions related to our universe, especially how the size of black holes increases.
This discovery has been made by the team of astrophysicist Rebecca Larson of Texas University. The paper related to the discovery has been presented to The Astrophysical Journal. According to the information, the CEERS_1019 galaxy was identified in 2015 after data received from the Hubble Telescope. The same Hubble telescope which has been in space for the last 30 years and has given us many important information till now. The existence of the CEERS_1019 galaxy was confirmed from Hubble’s data, but no further information could be found.
When the James Webb Telescope started its work after being deployed in space last year, scientists also carried forward the old discoveries. Because James Webb was so advanced than previous telescopes, scientists began gathering data on the CEERS_1019 galaxy. It is said that after monitoring this galaxy for just one hour, James Webb conveyed many important information to Earth.
James Webb’s data led scientists to the oldest black hole ever discovered in the CEERS_1019 galaxy. Despite this, scientists feel that this record will not remain intact for long. There is still a lot in the universe, which is beyond the reach of scientists. Black holes are such a topic on which the more research progresses, the more records will be created.
