Holes in the heavens
Article Abstract:
Black holes are seen as significant as galaxies, planets and stars, and may be necessary for the formation of galaxies. Amateur astronomer, Rod Stubbings, from Australia, discovered a black hole in Sep 1999 in the Sagittarius constellation, and California's Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's Charles Alcock has also found a black hole. Age may have enfeebled black holes, and major black holes may be a nucleus at the center of galaxies, allowing them to form.
