Think of the orbit of our planet Neptune and multiply that diameter by eleven! That is the diameter of this Black Hole.

I just came across this graphic that is interesting... about how big this mama actually is...

Holy flippin' banana. How far away is that monster? I couldn't quite figure that out. Let's hope it's far, far away.

My husband is going to enjoy this article!

Oh. At least it's not 240 million light-years away. Then I would have been worried.

Thanks (wiping forehead here with a cool, damp cloth).
