Scientists detect first mid-infrared flare from the supermassive black hole at our galaxy's center.

Scientists have detected a mid-infrared flare from the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy, Sagittarius A*, for the first time. This discovery, made using advanced telescopes, fills a gap in understanding the complex processes around black holes and supports existing theories about what causes these flares. The findings, which will be published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters, were presented at the American Astronomical Society meeting.
