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.
The Sagittarius A* cluster is the cluster of stars in close orbit around Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way (in the Galactic Center). The individual stars are often listed as " S-stars ", but their names and IDs are not formalized, and stars can have different numbers in different catalogues .
The pair of stars that constitute this system have an angular separation of 28.3 [11] arc seconds, with an estimated physical separation of about 3,290 AU. [4] The primary, Beta 1 Sagittarii A, is a B-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of B9 V. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] It is about 95% of the way through its lifespan on the main sequence ...
Nu 1 Sagittarii (ν 1 Sagittarii, abbreviated Nu 1 Sgr, ν 1 Sgr) is a triple star system [7] about 1,100 light-years from Earth.Its three components are designated Nu 1 Sagittarii A (officially named Ainalrami / ɛ n əl ˈ r eɪ m i /, the traditional name for the system), [8] B and C. [9] A and B themselves form a spectroscopic binary. [7]
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.
