Sagittarius A*, abbreviated as Sgr A* (/ ˈ s æ dʒ ˈ eɪ s t ɑːr / SADGE-AY-star [3]), is the supermassive black hole [4] [5] [6] at the Galactic Center of the Milky Way.Viewed from Earth, it is located near the border of the constellations Sagittarius and Scorpius, about 5.6° south of the ecliptic, [7] visually close to the Butterfly Cluster (M6) and Lambda Scorpii.
Sagittarius A (Sgr A) is a complex radio source at the center of the Milky Way, which contains a supermassive black hole. It is located between Scorpius and Sagittarius , and is hidden from view at optical wavelengths by large clouds of cosmic dust in the spiral arms of the Milky Way.
5 × 10 6 [110] Sagittarius A*: 4.3 × 10 6 [111] (8.54 × 10 36 kg) The black hole at the center of the Milky Way; second black hole directly imaged (after Messier 87) Messier 32: 1.5 × 10 6 – 5 × 10 6 [112] A dwarf satellite galaxy of the Andromeda Galaxy. NGC 4395: 3.599 × 10 5 [113] May be the smallest supermassive black hole.
However, the names of all SI mass units are based on gram, rather than on kilogram; thus 10 3 kg is a megagram (10 6 g), not a *kilokilogram. The tonne (t) is an SI-compatible unit of mass equal to a megagram (Mg), or 10 3 kg. The unit is in common use for masses above about 10 3 kg and is often used with SI prefixes.
A black hole of mass similar to that of Mount Everest, [20] 6.3715 × 10 14 kg, would have a Schwarzschild radius much smaller than a nanometre. [ citation needed ] The Schwarzschild radius would be 2 × 6.6738 × 10 −11 m 3 ⋅kg −1 ⋅s −2 × 6.3715 × 10 14 kg / ( 299 792 458 m⋅s −1 ) 2 = 9.46 × 10 −13 m = 9.46 × 10 −4 nm .
This transit will impact us from November 16 to December 10. On November 16, Venus leaves moody Scorpio and enters free-spirited Sagittarius. Venus in Sagittarius is a transit that astrologers ...
Sagittarius won't be offended if Aquarius needs time alone to think and detach; Aquarius will get why Sagittarius doesn't want to be pinned down. Their challenge will come in sharing vulnerable ...
For example, if a TNO is incorrectly assumed to have a mass of 3.59 × 10 20 kg based on a radius of 350 km with a density of 2 g/cm 3 but is later discovered to have a radius of only 175 km with a density of 0.5 g/cm 3, its true mass would be only 1.12 × 10 19 kg.
