Scientists Discover Three Supermassive Black Holes on Collision Course

Astronomers have discovered a trio of supermassive black holes in a distant galaxy, J0148-4214, that are on the verge of collision. This rare finding, observed in a galaxy that existed less than 1.3 billion years after the Big Bang, suggests a complex and violent evolutionary path for galaxies and their central black holes, potentially leading to the formation of an even larger black hole.
