Black Holes a Scientific Mystery

Black holes are incredible forces of nature. While most of us know about black holes from what we see in Star Trek or our favorite sci-fi movies, black holes are not fiction to say the least. In fact, black holes are very real and located in almost every galaxy. While these forces of nature are some of the most powerful ever theorized, black holes to many scientists are still a big mystery.


While many scientists are certain of black holes in galaxies far, far away, our own Milky Way Galaxy seemed void of this powerful phenomenon. However, after years of theories and continually building evidence, it is now finally confirmed that in the center of our marvelous galaxy lies the incredible force of a black hole.


If you are like most and find black holes, astronomy and science fiction interesting, you will love Smithsonian Magazine’s article on black holes. You can read the article and discover the many interesting facts regarding this incredible phenomenon and what it means to our own galaxy at the following link: http://www.smithsonianmag.com/
