It is generally believe that all large, if not most, galaxies do revolve around a black hole.
Our galaxy, removes around a super massive black hole, that is estimated to have the mass of 4.5 million Suns.

∙ 8y agoWe cannot be 100% sure but the chances are 99% certain that it has a super massive black hole at it's centre and many more "normal" black holes.
Although direct observations have indicated there are indeed dozens of black holes in our sister galaxy Andromeda, a full and accurate count of black holes would be difficult, for now the total number could only be estimated. Based on statistics about our own Milky Way galaxy which seems to have one black hole for roughly every one thousand stars, one might guess there are one billion (10^9) black holes lurking among the roughly one trillion (10^12) stars of Andromeda.

How big is the black hole in Andromeda?
The black hole at the centre of the Andromeda galaxy is estimated to be 140 million Solar-masses.
What is the diameter of the black hole of galaxy Andromeda?
In Jan 1987, John Cormedy of Dominion Astrophysical Observatory in Canada discovers the balck hole in Galaxy Andromeda and estimated that the diameter of black hole in Andromeda Galaxy is 10 million times as massive as the Sun.
Is your galaxy bigger than a black hole?
A galaxy is bigger than a black hole.
What is the shape of Andromeda?
The Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy, just like our own galaxy (the Milky Way).The Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy, just like our own galaxy (the Milky Way).The Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy, just like our own galaxy (the Milky Way).The Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy, just like our own galaxy (the Milky Way).
Is the black hole a part of your solar system?
There is no black hole in our solar system.It is believed, however, that there is a black hole at the center of the Milky Way Galaxy, and that there are black holes at the center of every galaxy.

What is at the center of the andromeda galaxy?
There are two observable entities at, or near the centre of the Andromeda Galaxy. The dimmer, P2, falls at the true center of the galaxy and contains a 108 solar mass black hole.
Is there black hole in glaxies?
Yes, there are. Most large galaxies, for example the Andromeda Galaxy or our own Milky way, have a supergiant black hole at their core. Now, in the arms of our galaxies there are thousands of black holes. So, yes, black holes do exist in galaxies. Theoretically, a black hole cannot form outside of a galaxy, because to form a black hole you require either one or two superstars, and superstars do not form outside of a galaxy or a cluster of stars.
Is the Andromeda galaxy an elliptical galaxy?
The Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy.
What close galaxy harbors a good-sized black hole?
Our very own Milky Way galaxy harbors a black hole boasting about four million solar masses - which qualifies it as supermassive and quite large. Our nearby ('close' in astronomical standards...) sister galaxy Andromeda might have one fifty times larger!
Could a supermassive black hole swallow your solar system?
It seems unlikely that this will occur before our Milky Way galaxy collides with Andromeda. Our solar system seems to be safely in orbit around the supermassive black hole in the center of the Milky Way, but in 4 billion years, when Andromeda (with its OWN supermassive black hole) collides with the Milky Way, it might possibly happen.
Is your galaxy bigger than a black hole?
A galaxy is bigger than a black hole.
What is in the center of the Andromeda galaxy?
The Andromeda's galactic nucleus is a black hole weighing about 3-5 x 10^7 Solar masses, surrounded by a dense cluster of stars. The structure there seems to hint it has a double nucleus.
Why was it named the Andromeda galaxy?
Because the Andromeda Galaxy or M31 is a major galaxy and is found in the constellation Andromeda.
Does life depnd on the black hole in the middle of the galaxy?
no it does not depend on the black hole in the middle of the galaxy
