Moving the black hole already ripped one normal star
French astronomers using telescopes Chandra and XMM-Newton found the first potential “wandering” black hole in a distant galaxy in the constellation of Bootes.
A black hole is a special area in space and time where gravity is so great that they cannot overcome even the objects moving at the speed of light, including light itself, according to the Astrophysical Journal.
Ordinary black holes are extremely difficult to locate and study because of the fact that they are practically invisible. Their presence shows only the curvature of light from other stars and flashes of radio emission produced by the absorption of their clumps of matter.
“Wandering” black hole in the galaxy GJ1417+52 in the constellation of Bootes, remote from the Earth at 4.5 billion light years, moves to the outskirts of their galaxy. The mass of the detected object is about 10 thousand Suns.
Moving the black hole, scientists believe, already ripped one normal star. After that, the hole absorbs large quantities of matter, emitting powerful x-ray beams.
How could this object and why it began to move around the galaxy, scientists still can not explain how and where it got into their galaxy.
