# Discovery Of An Active Wind From The Milky Way’s Central Black Hole

**[Hackaday](https://daily.dev/sources/hackaday)** · 2 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Astronomers have found the first observational evidence of a wind emanating from Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way. Using five years of ALMA observations, researchers identified a Southern Lobe of outward gas movement and evidence for a Northern Lobe. This confirms a prediction made since 1971 that black holes radiate energy that pushes nearby matter outward, similar to a solar wind. The effect is subtle because Sgr A* is unusually quiet, making detection difficult.
