There Could Be an 'Invisible Galaxy' Hiding in the Milky Way With Thousands of Black Holes

Scientists think that at the heart of nearly every galaxy, including our own Milky Way, lies a supermassive black hole (SMBH) with immense gravity. These SMBHs are surrounded by dense clusters of millions of stars and—according to findings published earlier this year—probably thousands of smaller, star-sized black holes that all orbit within a few light years of the center.
Now, astrophysicists from Eötvös University in Hungary have simulated the interactions of bodies orbiting the galactic center, finding that the more massive objects form a previously unexpected structure around the central SMBH, within which the thousands of predicted black holes may be hiding.
