Our galaxy's black hole suddenly flashed a bright light — and scientists don't know exactly why https://www.cbsnews.com/news/milky-...right-light-scientists-dont-know-exactly-why/
That was a nifty little news piece! Thanks for the heads up on it. Black Holes are just phenomenally weird aren't they? One of the truly great books on them is by Leonard Susskind, "The Black Hole Wars" where he hacks it out (in a friendly yet serious manner) with Stephen Hawking over various properties of Black Holes. It's been awhile since I've read that one, time to re-up my remembering part of my brain and read it again.
