Most monster black holes lurk at the heart of massive galaxies
"Racist" analogies could be made with most major american cities.

It may be a "Big bang" waiting to happen. Or it could have devoured its' surrounding galaxy. In either case, it can be detected by the activity on the other side of it from us. Creates a silhouette if nothing else.

Most monster black holes lurk at the heart of massive galaxies, slurping up matter from the galactic center with a pull so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape. But a team of European astronomers reported in the journal Nature that a particular black hole some 5 billion light-years away has no evidence of a host galaxy. Could it have consumed it's surrounding galaxy of stars and matter?

I thought it might be Webster Hubble looking for a piece for Bill.

But a team of European astronomers reported in the journal Nature that a particular black hole some 5 billion light-years away has no evidence of a host galaxy. A light-year is about 6 trillion miles, the distance light travels in a year. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to say the "black hole...had no evidence of a host galaxy."? After all, they are looking back billions of years in time. It seems silly to refer to such deep-space observations in the present tense.
