Chandra X-ray Observatory | Quick Look: NASA's Chandra Identifies an Underachieving Black Hole @ChandraXray | Uploaded March 2024 | Updated October 2024, 5 days ago.
Astronomers have found a quasar not living up to expectations.
Quasars are rapidly growing supermassive black holes pulling in lots of material.
The quasar H1821+643 is not as influential as many slower-growing giant black holes.
This discovery was made using NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory and the Very Large Array.
