Central Black Holes or their Galaxies, Which Came First
Scientists from the European Southern Observatory (ESO) announced earlier this week that they have evidence which leads them to believe that black holes may have led to the formation of the galaxies within which they reside. You can learn more about this by reading the ESO announcement here. Or read the scientific paper available online here. After all, as Dr. David Elbaz says “the ‘chicken and egg’ question of whether a galaxy or its black hole comes first is one of the most debated subjects in astrophysics today.”
