Scientists discover gigantic black hole in space

In research published on March 29, scientists from Durham University explain that they have discovered a gigantic black hole located 2.7 billion light years from Earth. Its size would be about 33 billion times greater than that of the Sun. The team used the gravitational lensing effect (also known as Einstein’s ring) to match supercomputer simulations to high-definition images taken by the Hubble Telescope of
