Massive black hole discovered in nearby galaxy

The discoveries of a huge back hole in a nearby galaxy and gamma rays emanating from the Crab Nebula may not be what Jesus was referring to in his warnings of end-time events, but it is interesting non-the-less.  Only in the last couple decades has it been possible to explore the deepest reaches of the Galaxies with current technology, making our generation unique.

There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. Luke NIV


From the articles:
US astronomers have discovered a huge black hole, a million times the mass of the sun, in a nearby galaxy -- a finding that could help better understand the origins of the universe. The announcement Monday by the American Astronomical Society said the surprise discovery in a so-called "dwarf" galaxy offers evidence that black holes -- regions of space where not even light can escape -- formed before the build-up of galaxies.

One of the most well-known celestial objects still has some tricks up its sleeve, according to a new discovery of surprising gamma-ray flares coming from the famous Crab Nebula. The Crab, long-considered such a steady celestial light that it was used to calibrate other sources, has now had three flare-ups where it brightened significantly in the gamma-ray range for a few days, astronomers report.  "Our belief of a stable Crab got smashed completely — now we have to think again," said Marco Tavani, an astronomer at the INAF-IASF in Rome
