Astronomers Discover More Mysterious Space Blobs In The Center of The Milky Way

Astronomers have found four new and mysterious objects orbiting the Milky Way’s supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A*. The strange objects look a lot like common clouds of gas and dust, but they surprisingly achieve to stay compact like stars as they run laps around our galaxy’s gargantuan black hole. The quartet of new objects shares striking similarities with two others, dubbed G1 and G2, that were found in the past 15 years or so. This has led astronomers to conclude the four new bodies likely relate to the same class of objects as G1 and G2, which are simply referred to as G-sources or G-objects.To validate whether this is what’s happening with the G-objects, the researchers say they’ll have to gather more information about these mysterious bodies.
