X-ray flashes from a nearby supermassive black hole accelerate mysteriously
Their source could be the core of a dead star that's teetering at the black hole's edge, MIT astronomers report. One supermassive black hole has kept astronomers glued to their scopes for the last several years. First came a surprise disappearance, and now, a precarious spinning act. The black hole in question is 1ES 1927+654, which is about as massive as a million suns and sits in a galaxy that is 270 million light-years away.
