Scientists from Durham University in the UK have made an incredible discovery - a supermassive black hole that is 30 billion times more massive than our Sun. The black hole is the biggest ever discovered, according to The Comet website.

The research, which was published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, was described by scientists as "extremely exciting". The image captured by the Hubble Space Telescope shows the black hole in the center, surrounded by light reflected from superheated gases swirling around due to immense gravity.

The discovery of this black hole is particularly significant because it was found with the help of gravitational lensing, which can be used to study passive black holes. Most giant black holes we know of are in their active state, where they emit energy in the form of light, X-rays, and other radiation.

This discovery is also significant because it opens up the possibility of detecting black holes in other galaxies from our Milky Way galaxy and understanding how these black holes form. The researchers say that after this discovery, it will be possible for astronomers to discover black holes many times larger in the future.

The research was supported by several organizations, including the UK Space Agency, the Royal Society, the Science and Technology Facilities Council, UK Research and Innovation, and the European Research Council.

So, what exactly is a black hole? Supermassive black holes are the most massive objects in the universe, ranging from 10 billion to 40 billion times the mass of the Sun. They are thought to be found at the center of most galaxies, including our own Milky Way galaxy.

When a star is at the end of its life, it can explode or turn into a black hole. Any star becomes a black hole when all its matter is trapped in a small space. The gravity is so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape. Overall, this discovery is a significant milestone in the study of black holes and will undoubtedly lead to further groundbreaking discoveries in the future.

Black holes are a source of curiosity for many people interested in astronomy. They're found in the center of every galaxy, but their effects on the universe and their mysterious nature make them even more intriguing. Our own galaxy, the Milky Way, has a "supermassive" black hole at its center, which is a million times the size of our sun. About 230 million stars orbit this black hole, including our own sun.

But how does a black hole get so much power, and why is it so hard to detect? Einstein's theory of relativity states that gravity depends on an object's matter and density. If our sun were compressed to the size of a football, its density would increase, and its gravity would become so strong that even light could not escape it. This would turn our sun into a black hole.

Despite not allowing light to escape, the mass and gravity of a black hole remain the same. The gravitational attraction of a black hole remains constant, and stars and planets continue to orbit around it. The boundary around a black hole is called the "Event Horizon," which marks the point of no return. If anything crosses this boundary, it's impossible to return.

Scientists used to predict that if a star came too close to a black hole, it would first be torn apart and then swallowed whole. However, with the help of special telescopes, scientists recently observed a star about 20 million times the mass of our sun disintegrate as it approached a black hole in a pair of conflicting galaxies 150 million light-years away. Much of the star was swallowed by the black hole, but some particles were scattered around.

This discovery confirms the predictions scientists have been making for years with the help of physics and mathematics. It also shows that science is on the right path, and we should encourage the study of science in Pakistan so that our discoveries are recognized globally.
