James Webb Telescope

An artist's concept shows the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy, known as Sagittarius A*, surrounded by a swirling accretion disk of hot gas, in this undated illustration obtained by Reuters on February 18, 2025. The black hole's strong gravity bends light from the far side of the disk, making it appear to wrap above and below the black hole. Several flaring hot spots that resemble solar flares are seen in the disk. Illustration: NASA, ESA, CSA, Ralf Crawford (STScI)/Handout via REUTERS
