Scientists capture the moment a massive black hole suddenly awakens
Briefly

Scientists witnessed the unexpected 'awakening' of a supermassive black hole, emitting immense light suddenly in 2019, a previously silent massive void now consuming surrounding matter.
The phenomenon observed more than 300 light-years away in the Virgo constellation could potentially occur in the Milky Way's black hole, hinting at similar possibilities.
Galaxy SDSS1335+0728's core began emitting significant infrared, ultraviolet, and visible light in 2019, a transformative event unmatched by typical astronomical occurrences.
Unlike common explanations like supernovae or tidal disruption events, the sustained brightness increase in the galaxy indicates a unique celestial phenomenon, attracting global astronomer attention for detailed observations.
