Astronomers using the National Science Foundations Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) radio telescope have found an ancient black hole speeding through the Suns Galactic neighborhood, devouring a small companion star as the pair travels in an eccentric orbit looping to the outer reaches of our Milky Way Galaxy. The scientists believe the black hole is the remnant of a massive star that lived out its brief life billions of years ago and later was gravitationally kicked from its home star cluster to wander the Galaxy with its companion.
