Anyone know why the black hole is marked well off the axis of the orbit of S2 in diagram [1]? Is there enough mass elsewhere at the center of the galaxy to have it orbiting a common mass so far off axis? The video of the orbit [2] seems to

Habanero and mustard makes a great base flavor for hot sauces. My introduction was via Aji Chombo hot sauce from Panama. The addition of sweet and fruitiness and the cumin and curry sounds amazing.

It is, but I think it is a useful discussion of our own personal ethics to have. Take a moment to reflect on some of the scenarios and how you would react to them. Do your principles and your belief system speak to the issues raised? It is

The mass of the central black hole is a tiny fraction of the mass of the galaxy, it might be more correct to say that the objects in a galaxy orbit the common mass (including dark matter) of the galaxy. For example, the black hole at the ce
