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.
As of 2020, 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.
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.
