Webb telescope observes violence around Milky Way's central black hole
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope is providing the best look yet at the chaotic events unfolding around the supermassive black hole at the center of our Milky Way galaxy, observing a steady flickering of light punctuated by occasional bright flares as material is drawn inward by its enormous gravitational pull. Webb, which was launched in 2021 and began collecting data in 2022, is enabling astronomers to observe the region around the black hole - called Sagittarius A*, or Sgr A* - for extended periods for the first time, allowing them to discern patterns of activity. The researchers observed a constant flickering of light from the swirling disk of gas surrounding the black hole - called an accretion disk.

Colombia’s military rejected the move on Monday and said that the ELN is trying to keep civilians off the region's roads and rivers to facilitate the transport of equipment used in illegal gold mines and to move drug shipments.
