Black Holes Have Simple Feeding Habits
At the center of spiral galaxy M81 is a supermassive black hole about 70
million times more massive than our sun.
A study using data from Chandra and ground-based telescopes, combined with
detailed theoretical models, shows that the supermassive black hole in M81 feeds
just like stellar mass black holes, with masses of only about ten times that of
the sun. This discovery supports Einstein's relativity theory that states black
holes of all sizes have similar properties.
