Three Supermassive Black Holes Found in a Galaxy From the Dawn of the Universe
Three supermassive black holes in a distant and therefore very old galaxy offer a glimpse into how black holes merged and grew in the early universe. Light from the galaxy J0148-4214 has been traveling toward Earth for more than 12.5 billion years, revealing the system as it looked only about 1.2 billion years after the [...]
Astronomers have discovered an early galaxy with three active massive black holes – it is the first discovery of such a trio in the early cosmos.
Astronomers have identified three supermassive black holes in a distant galaxy, J0148-4214, which existed only 1.2 billion years after the Big Bang. The discovery, led by the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics, provides new evidence about the formation and merging of black holes in the early universe. Discovery in a distant galaxy: The galaxy J0148-4214, located 12.5 billion light-years from Earth, has a redshift of z=5.02, indica…
