This Hubble Space Telescope archival photo captures a curious linear feature that is so unusual it was first dismissed as an imaging artifact from Hubble's cameras. But follow-up spectroscopic observations reveal it is a 200,000-light-year-long chain of young blue stars. A supermassive black hole lies at the tip of the bridge at lower left.

This computer-simulated image shows a supermassive black hole at the core of a galaxy. The black region in the center represents the black holeâs event horizon, where no light can escape the massive objectâs gravitational grip. The black holeâs powerful gravity distorts space around it like a funhouse mirror. Light from background stars is stretched and smeared as the stars skim by the black hole. (NASA)
