Astronomers have found a supermassive black hole that might as well be the largest known to date. Residing at the center of a galaxy, hundreds of million light years from us, the black hole is extraordinarily massive and has spurred interest among the scientific community. It is also the first black hole to be discovered using a technique called gravitational lensing.
