Will the Milky Way's black hole eventually eat the entire galaxy?

Hypothetically Yes - That is one considered scenario for the termination of our universe. Eventually as a solar system nears a black hole, any planets within the solar system would be crushed and compacted, like so much garbage, and become part of the accretion disk - long before it eventually disappears across the threshold of the black hole's event horizon.

Which galaxy arms extend from a core full of black holes?
The Milky Way appears to have a huge (even for a black hole) gravitational object at the center of it, and this is supposed by a lot of scientists to be a black hole. The arms of our galaxy sweep around the center.
What galaxy arms extend from a core full of black holes?
Such a galaxy is called a spiral galaxy.
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 would happen if the milky way black hole became active?
It would emit a lot of radiation. Some distant black holes (or more accurately, the area around the black holes) emit more radiation than an entire galaxy. Such black holes are known as quasars.
Does the Milky Way Galaxy have an active galactic nucleus?
Our Milky Way has a supermassive black hole at its nucleus. It is an active radio source. It is probably not a Seyfert galaxy, which is a galaxy of a type characterized by a bright compact core that shows strong infrared emission, though.
What do scientist think all of the stars in the milky way galaxy orbit around?
They orbit around the center of the galaxy due to the galaxy's own gravity. Contrary to popular belief, the Galaxy's central black hole does not have strong enough gravity to hold the entire galaxy together as it accounts for only a tiny fraction of our galaxy's mass.
Is the Milky Way much smaller than the black hole?
No - The volume of the Milky Way galaxy is larger than the volume of its host black hole. The accumulated mass of the Milky Way galaxy is greater than the mass of its host black hole. The density of the Milky Way galaxy is much smaller than the density of its host black hole.
Are there two black holes in the center of Milky Way galaxy?
Current thoughts, based on observations, are, that there is a single massive black hole at the centre of our Galaxy, the Milky Way.
What galaxy has a black hole?
The Milky Way (our galaxy) is believed to have one in the center. Every or almost every galaxy has a black hole in the middle of it.
What will happen to the milky way galaxy in the universe?
Difficult to know for certain. However, it seems likely that the Milky Way galaxy will collide with the Andromeda Galaxy in about 3.4 billion years or so. The supermassive black holes that are believed to be in the centers of many galaxies (including the Milky Way) will probably merge, and most of the stars of the combined galaxy will eventually settle into position in the new galaxy. But some stars will likely be flung out into interstellar space.
Where is there a giant black hole?
At the centre of our Galaxy, the Milky Way
What object is in the center of your galaxy?
I'm assuming your not an intergalactic, extraterrestrial and that your galaxy is the same as my galaxy - the Milky Way. There is overwhelming evidence that a super-massive black hole is at the center of the Milky Way.
Is there a black hole in your galaxy?
All galaxies have black holes, even the Milky Way.
What object does our solar system revolve around?
The planets, asteroids, comets, and other objects that make up our solar system orbit the Sun. Our entire solar system orbits the black hole at the center of our Milky Way Galaxy, like everything else in the Milky Way Galaxy does.
Which galaxy arms extend from a core full of black holes?
The Milky Way appears to have a huge (even for a black hole) gravitational object at the center of it, and this is supposed by a lot of scientists to be a black hole. The arms of our galaxy sweep around the center.
What is the core of the milky way galaxy made from?
A supermassive black hole.
What is the center of the milky galaxy professor?
Most astrophysicists believe that there is a supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way.
