A hot object orbits black hole Sagittarius A* – space

The newly discovered object is strikingly similar to a clock that does not work very precisely. Like a minute hand, it moves in an approximately clockwise circle around a central axis, with one revolution taking around 70 minutes instead of the obligatory 60. The main difference lies in the dimensions: The “clock” we are talking regarding has roughly the diameter of Mercury’s orbit. The strange phenomenon was found in the center of our galaxy, near the oversized black hole Sagittarius A*.
