Thanks to the Gaia space telescope, scientists have discovered a black hole in the Milky Way. The object, Gaia BH3, is located in the Eagle constellation, less than 2 000 light years from the Sun. Lennart Lindegren, Professor Emeritus of Astronomy at the Department of Physics, who has worked for many years to develop the measurement methods used by Gaia, is delighted with the new space discovery.
