Scientists discover the Milky Way's 'galactic graveyard' filled with black holes
Fox News
Scientists at the University of Sydney have discovered a galactic graveyard filled with dead suns turned into black holes and neutron stars.
David Sweeney, the study's lead author and a Ph.D. student at the Sydney Institute for Astronomy at the University of Sydney, noted that the stars ran out of fuel and collapsed to become black holes.
"These compact remnants of dead stars show a fundamentally different distribution and structure to the visible galaxy," Sweeney said in a statement. "The ‘height’ of the galactic underworld is over three times larger in the Milky Way itself. And an amazing 30 percent of objects have been completely ejected from the galaxy."
