“swirling ‘daintily’ around a single large star”

Fascinating!
"...a galaxy in miniature, orbiting perilously close to the center of our own galaxy."
Who or what is in peril? What might happen?
"...the center of the Milky Way is millions of times denser with stars than our neck of the galaxy"
I had no idea about that. That is amazing.

If you were on a planet near the center of the galaxy, assuming you could survive the radiation, it would never be ‘night’......................

“a miniature spiral galaxy, swirling daintily around a single large star”
The very premise of the article is nonsense. There’s no such thing as a galaxy with one star, and a disc of gas that happens to show spiral characteristics is no more a “miniature galaxy” than a whirlpool of water is a “water galaxy”.

It think that’s the logo that comes up and bounces around the galaxy if nobody moves the mouse for 5 minutes.

Think of a ‘night’ sky with thousands of stars that are filling the entire sky with light..........

All of their representations of black holes is nothing more than Windows Sphere screensaver.
