Supermassive Black Hole Ejection: Scientists Observe Rare Galactic Event. Observations showed it moving over 1,000 kilometres per second. The black hole was found about 33,000 light-years from its galaxy’s centre. Scientists believe a major cosmic event caused this displacement. If proven, this could be one of the strongest cases of a supermassive black hole ejection ever observed. However, Luke Zoltan Kelley from the University of California, Berkeley, remains cautious. He notes that active galactic nuclei (AGN) can sometimes appear to move quickly even without a merger. Further studies and detailed modelling are needed to confirm the findings.
