The black hole in the nucleus of the Milky Way Galaxy could not be the remnant of a single dead star.
Explanation:
The very center of the galaxy is known as the nucleus of the galaxy. The nucleus of the galaxy is hidden due to the dust particles present in the galaxy, which eventually covers the light of the nucleus.
The nucleus of the galaxy is filled with numerous stars and dust and the radiation emitted by them. The black hole lies at the center of the galaxy.
<u>These super-massive black holes could not be the remnant of a single dead star because these holes are very large.</u>
The mass of a black hole formed from a single star would be in the range of 5 to 80 solar masses.
The mass of the black hole at the nucleus of the Milky Way is 4.7 × 10⁶ solar masses.
The image below shows a supermassive black hole. We see no light in the centre, because the black hole absorbs it. We do see light from the accretion disk, the material that gets heated as it spirals into the hole.
