Galaxy harbours many star-snacking black holes

Astronomers have found evidence of hundreds of black holes in a galaxy 250 million light years away. The discovery, made with a worldwide network of radio telescopes, gives scientists a new way to find out how black holes are created.

Philip Diamond, Chief of CSIRO Astronomy and Space Science was a contributing author to the research.
