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.
One star, designated S2, was calculated to orbit Sgr A* at speeds of over 5,000 kilometers per second at its closest approach. [10] A gas cloud, G2, passed through the Sagittarius A* region in 2014 and managed to do so without disappearing beyond the event horizon, as theorists predicted would happen. Rather, it disintegrated, suggesting that ...
One of the most studied stars is S2, a relatively bright star that also passes close by Sgr A*. As of 2020 [update] , S4714 is the current record holder of closest approach to Sagittarius A*, at about 12.6 astronomical units (1.88 × 10 9 km), almost as close as Saturn gets to the Sun, traveling at about 8% of the speed of light.

S62 is a star in the cluster surrounding Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), the supermassive black hole in the center of the Milky Way.S62 was initially thought to orbit extremely close to Sgr A*, with a period of 9.9 years and a closest approach of only 16 astronomical units (2.4 × 10 9 km), less than the distance between Uranus and the Sun.
Sagittarius’ sun sign is Sagittarius, but you knew that already. As a fire sign, Sagittarius is all about energy, action and motivation. They are often quick to get inspired and make for highly ...
