    The supermassive black hole Sagittarius A*, imaged by the Event Horizon Telescope [8] Astronomers now have evidence that there is a supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy. [ 9 ] Sagittarius A* (abbreviated Sgr A*) is agreed to be the most plausible candidate for the location of this supermassive black hole.

    A black hole with the mass of a car would have a diameter of about 10 −24 m and take a nanosecond to evaporate, during which time it would briefly have a luminosity of more than 200 times that of the Sun. Lower-mass black holes are expected to evaporate even faster; for example, a black hole of mass 1 TeV/c 2 would take less than 10 −88 ...
