The mysteries of the universe are still unfolding, and one of the newest discoveries from the James Webb Space Telescope proves to be a foundation for understanding black holes. The discovery of a runaway supermassive black hole that weighs 10 million times as much as our sun, and is traveling at 2.2 million miles per hour through Cosmic Owl Galaxy. Not only does this discovery tell us about an incredible velocity for a celestial object, but it also demonstrates an energy output that is 3,000 times greater than the speed of sound. The discovery of this runaway black hole leads to an even larger area of study beyond simply the formation and behavior of black holes. The runaway black hole leaves behind a galaxy sized wake that pulls in gas and dust and leads to new star formation over a distance of 200,000 light years. Scientists will continue to study this to learn more about the universe and how celestial objects interact with each other.
