Theorists are eager to hear the results of our observation, so they can test their ideas. X-ray camera, which acquired the data. This sensitivity, plus the superior spatial resolution of Chandra's mirrors, make Chandra the perfect tool for studying this faint X-ray source in its crowded field. This poses a problem for theorists. The galactic center is a crowded place.
Astronomers believe that most galaxies harbor massive black holes at their centers.
Many of these black holes are thought to produce powerful and brilliant point-like sources of light that astronomers call quasars and active galactic nuclei. Why the center of our galaxy is so dim is a long-standing puzzle.
