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.
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.
Estimates from an IAU question-and-answer press release from 2006, giving 800 km radius and 0.5 × 10 21 kg mass as cut-offs that normally would be enough for hydrostatic equilibrium, while stating that observation would be needed to determine the status of borderline cases. [50]
Marking the ninth zodiac sign on the wheel, Sagittarius is a Fire sign that arrives after Scorpio and before Capricorn. It is symbolized by an archer and its season spans Nov. 22 to Dec. 21 in 2025.
A Sagittarius-Sagittarius friendship is full of fun. These two love to party and share adventures. This duo will thrive in social settings so make sure to invite them to the party — any party.
Sagittarius will want to show Cancer new experiences while Cancer provides Sagittarius with comfort and understanding. Different on paper, they may disagree on how they communicate with one another.
An overview of ranges of mass. To help compare different orders of magnitude, the following lists describe various mass levels between 10 −67 kg and 10 52 kg. The least massive thing listed here is a graviton, and the most massive thing is the observable universe.
