Finally, is information that I was waiting a long time, and that is one more step for you to discover the events that occur in the Milky Way (our galaxy). This taking into account that the observations in other galaxies shows that all have a super massive black hole at its center, and for years that astronomers have sought that of ours.
The main problem is that ordinary telescopes can not penetrate clouds of dust and gas in some regions of space, which only allow to see the stars that were out of the clouds. With the passage of time and technological progress, is desarrllaron special infrared telescopes and receivers of the same, allowing through those thick clouds of cosmic dust.
In the month of December 2008 to be specific on the 11th, astronomers from the Max Planck Institute in Germany, led by Reinhard Genzel astronomer given the news of the discovery of supermassive black hole, called Sagittarius A *, was placed after follow the trajectories of 28 stars going at a speed unusual for a star (a few million miles per hour), has a mass of 4 million higher than our sun, and the measurements has learned that the Earth is at 27,000 light years from the center Milky Way.
Finally, astronomers want in the near future combining the light from reaching 4 telescopes in a technique called interferometry, which will improve the accuracy of observations from 10 to 100 times over current with the science that may prove General Theory of Relativity by Einstein.
