Oldest Known Black Hole Discovered by NASA's Telescopes

Researchers believe the black hole was created when clouds of gas collapsed in one galaxy next to a galaxy with stars, which then combined to form one galaxy, with the black hole taking over.
The black hole is believed to have formed just 470 million years after the Big Bang and is 10 times larger than the black hole in the Milky Way.
The black hole's weight is estimated to be anywhere from 10 to 100% the mass of all the stars in its galaxy.

Astronomers have discovered the oldest known black hole, estimated to be 13.2 billion years old, using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope and Chandra X-Ray Observatory. This black hole is believed to have formed just 470 million years after the Big Bang, making it a significant discovery in the field of astronomy.

The black hole is ten times larger than the one in the Milky Way, indicating its massive size. Its weight is estimated to be anywhere from 10 to 100% the mass of all the stars in its galaxy, further emphasizing its enormity.

Researchers theorize that the black hole was created when clouds of gas collapsed in one galaxy next to a galaxy with stars. These two galaxies then combined to form one galaxy, with the black hole taking over. This discovery provides vital clues about the formation of the universe's first supermassive black holes and confirms theories that supermassive black holes existed at the dawn of the universe.

The discovery of this black hole is a significant milestone in the field of astronomy and provides valuable insights into the early universe. Further studies and observations will continue to shed light on the nature and formation of black holes.
