The orbits of the planets in our solar system would all fit inside its event horizon," co-author Samuel Lai, an ANU astronomer, said in the statement.

Simply amazing.

Australian astronomers discovered the cosmic juggernaut using data from Australian National University’s SkyMapper Southern Sky Survey, which aims to map out the entirety of the sky in the Southern Hemisphere. Locating the supermassive black hole was like finding a “very large, unexpected needle in the haystack,” the researchers said in a statement (opens in new tab). >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

These scientists must previously been Obama origination researchers, well trained in searching for a black hole.

That’s about 1 sun every 4 days. But, is this how much actually makes it across the event horizon, or is torn up by the accretion disk? Because it matters somehow.

"This is likely due to increased Hawking radiation — thermal radiation that is theorized to be released from black holes due to the effects of quantum mechanics."

Leaving aside, for a moment, that Hawking radiation is just a "theory" for which not a single piece of evidence has been obtained, Hawking radiation would be increasing only as the black hole gets smaller and smaller...
Not "larger & larger"...

So, a new metric for measuring black-hole appetites: # of earth-masses per second.
