The Massive

The Massive is a large, dense cloud of gas and dust in space, often found in the centers of galaxies. It contains an enormous amount of material, typically including a supermassive black hole at its core. These regions are critical for galaxy formation and evolution, as the black hole influences surrounding stars and gas. The Massive can produce energetic events like quasars and active galactic nuclei, emitting intense radiation. Studying these regions helps astronomers understand the dynamics of galaxies and the role black holes play in shaping the universe.
