Fast-Moving Black Hole

Posted by michael on from the vacuum-cleaner dept.

otisaardvark writes "New Scientist story about a very fast moving Black Hole in our very own Galaxy. Seems it was formed from a supernova explosion. I wish stars like this could have a more exciting name than GRO J1655-40 though. More at the BBC."

  1. Article is redundant by erpbridge · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Sorry to tell ya, this article is redundant. It was reported in the Tranya-Voltaris Times about 6000-9000 years ago. I don't have a link, the page request timed out.

    Can't we get the Slashdot editors to post things on time a little sooner? I'm getting tired of the articles being a day, two days, or 6000-9000 years behind when they actually got posted.
