Seems they found a star orbiting the galactic center at very high speeds.

YAAAAAAY!!!! Astronomy and astrophysics!!! Finally, something other than CP's pointless ramblings about math concepts (without having anything to apply them to).

Saw this yesterday; it's a good thing they have some experimental evidence for this now, as I have been quite a supporter of this "galactic black hole" theory.

[Stunaep]

well, it's  a widely supported theory

Anyone ever watch that old Disney movie "The Black Hole"?

I remeber after seeing that, being always fascinated with them. Then after reading "A brief history on Time" I came to realise they're even MORE interesting! No doubt theres some huge black hole thingymajig spinning our galaxy peacefully, I'm just wondering when it'll start acting up again!

seems there's black holes about everywhere, so why not a big one in the center of the galaxy, after all. Always sounded logical to me, somehow.

Well, the opposing "cosmic string" theory had some support a few years ago as a solution to the dark matter problem, but this one seemed to fit the facts better at least to me.
