A group of astronomers have discovered the largest black hole known to mankind, using some really unconventional methods.

They have found this supermassive black hole using bent light and gravity.

Astronomers have identified that this massive colossal black hole, which possesses a mass equivalent to 30 billion suns, is at the centre of a galaxy that is situated millions of light-years away from our planet.

Referred to as an ultramassive black hole, it distinguishes itself from the typical supermassive black holes found in galaxies, which typically range in mass from a few million to a few billion solar masses.

Although possessing an immense mass, this supermassive black hole displays minimal activity, indicating a relatively low intake of matter and a subsequent absence of intense X-ray radiation.

This mammoth black hole has been detected by accident.

The team of astronomers, led by James Nightingale, an astrophysicist at Durham University in the UK, were actually studying a galaxy that is positioned even farther from Earth than the one housing the enormous black hole.
