Well, Sleavester, the core of the Milky Way is a black hole associated with the radio source designated "Sagittarius A*".


This false-color image shows the central region of our Milky Way Galaxy as seen by Chandra. The bright, point-like source at the center of the image was produced by a huge X-ray flare that occurred in the vicinity of the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy. This central black hole has about 2.6 million times the mass of our sun and is associated with the compact radio source Sagittarius A*.
