Sagittarius A*'s journey
from violent destroyer to sculptor of the galaxy to the sleeping giant that we see today has been pieced together over
the last 20 years by observational data from telescopes such as
Chandra and Fermi. But there's
a very big difference indeed, between knowing how a black hole interacts with its environment,
how it sculpts a galaxy and what it actually is at a deep level

Sagittarius A*'s journey
from violent destroyer
00:00:05.121 --> 00:00:07.321
to sculptor of the galaxy
00:00:07.401 --> 00:00:09.441
to the sleeping giant that we see today
00:00:09.052 --> 00:00:14.081
has been pieced together over
the last 20 years by observational data
00:00:14.161 --> 00:00:17.241
from telescopes such as
Chandra and Fermi.
00:00:19.201 --> 00:00:21.481
But there's
a very big difference indeed,
00:00:21.561 --> 00:00:23.041
between knowing how a black hole
00:00:23.121 --> 00:00:26.521
interacts with its environment,
how it sculpts a galaxy
00:00:27.321 --> 00:00:30.881
and what it actually is at a deep level.
