Lohong hitam supermasif
−0.40 M, berbilion kali lebih besar daripada Matahari.[1] Gambar lohong hitam ini dihasilkan oleh Event Horizon Telescope pada 10 April 2019.[2][3] Gegelang ini mempunyai diameter kira-kira 700 AU, sekitar sepuluh kali lebih besar daripada orbit Neptun di sekitar Matahari. Diameternya yang jelas ialah 42 ± 3 μas.
Lohong hitam supermasif ialah jenis lohong hitam yang terbesar mengandungi jisim beratus-ratus ribu hingga berbilion kali lebih banyak daripada jisim matahari (M☉). Lubang hitam ialah kelas objek astronomi yang telah mengalami keruntuhan graviti, meninggalkan kawasan sferoid ruang yang tidak dapat dilepaskan, bahkan tidak ada cahaya. Bukti pemerhatian menunjukkan bahawa hampir semua galaksi besar mengandungi lohong hitam supermasif, terletak di pusat galaksi.[4][5] Pusat galaksi Bima Sakti mempunyai lohong hitam jenis ini yang sepadan dengan lokasi sumber radio astronomi Sagittarius A*.[6][7] Penokokan gas antara najam ke lohong hitam supermasif adalah proses yang bertanggungjawab untuk memaksa kuasar dan lain-lain jenis nukleus galaktik aktif.
