There are loads of black holes in the Milky Way Galaxy.
The closest is only 1,600 light years away.
The largest is at our galactic centre. A super massive black hole, with a mass greater than over 4 million solar masses or over 4 million times bigger than the sun.
Black holes are resulte of a defomation in space created by a very compact mass.
The black hole at the center of the Milky Way, known as Sagittarius A*, has a mass about four million times that of the Sun. It exerts a strong gravitational pull on surrounding objects and stars, causing them to orbit around it. Gas and dust falling into the black hole give off energy and radiation, making it detectable to telescopes.
The Milky Way also contains two significant minor arms, as well as two. This supermassive black hole may have started off smaller.
There is a far greater concentration of stars, than what we have here in our neighborhood. One interesting feature in the center of the Milky Way is a huge black hole, whose mass is currently estimated at 4 million times the mass of our Sun.There is a far greater concentration of stars, than what we have here in our neighborhood.

At the center of the Milky Way galaxy, scientists believe there is a supermassive black hole known as Sagittarius A*. This black hole has a mass estimated to be about four million times that of our Sun. Observations of stars orbiting this region provide strong evidence for its existence, indicating that it exerts a significant gravitational influence on nearby objects.
Gravity causes all orbits. It is believed that there is a "super massive" black hole at the center of the Milky Way, and most or all other galaxies, that serves as the primary source of gravity.
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.
The middle of the milky way is a black hole and a black hole cannot be made up as matter. The middle of the milky way has no size, but the black hole sucks the light making it look big in pictures. The actual size is nothing.
It is suggested that there is a black hole in the center of not just The Milky Way, but most other galaxies.
Fortunately, no.
Black holes are common in most galaxies. It is not odd that there would be a black hole in the middle of the Milky Way.
At the centre of our Galaxy, the Milky Way
A supermassive black hole.
They don't specifically orbit the black hole. Stars orbit the Milky Way because in general, they are attracted to the other masses in the Milky Way. The supermassive black hole is only a tiny fraction of the total mass of the Milky Way. Well, you might say that they move around the black hole, but that's only because it happens to be there. Without they black hole, they would move around the center of the Milky Way anyway.
All galaxies have black holes, even the Milky Way.
A supermassive black hole.
I believe the closest black hole is in the center of the Milky Way galaxy... But is a black hole a dark hole? Hmm.
The galactic center of the Milky Way is a compact object of very large mass (named Sagittarius A), strongly suspected to be a supermassive black hole.
