TON 618 held the title of the most powerful Black Hole until the discovery of the even larger monster called Phoenix A. But what are black holes? A black hole is a region of space-time from which nothing can escape due to strong gravity. It is created when a finite mass is compressed into a volume smaller than a critical value in a process called gravitational collapse. The gravitational force that causes matter to contract becomes greater than all other material forces, and the matter contracts to a single point. At this point, according to the general theory of relativity, certain physical quantities become infinite, and in the region of space surrounding the singularity, gravity is so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape from there. According to estimates, there are more than 10 million black holes in our galaxy alone, and there are hundreds of billions of galaxies in the entire universe. Ultramassive black holes are the most massive objects in the universe, with masses between 10 and 40 billion times that of the Sun. They are found at the center of every large galaxy, including the Milky Way. Black holes of this size are rare, and their formation is unclear. Some believe they were formed by the merger of huge galaxies billions of years ago, when the universe was still young. The new record-breaker, which also humbles TON 618, has a mass of 4,100 times that of the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, and twice as heavy as the Triangulum Galaxy. Its event horizon, and hold on tight, is 590.5 billion kilometers, or 100 times the distance between the Sun and Pluto. Just to give you some idea of this distance, it takes 8 minutes for light from the Sun to reach us on Earth, and the event horizon of this Black Hole is so large that light has to travel for more than 104 thousand minutes.
