IC 1101 Central Black hole

IC 1101 is a supergiant elliptical galaxy located around 1.04 billion light-years from Earth. It is currently the largest galaxy known in the observable universe, with a diameter of up to 6 million light years; at least 40 times larger than the Milky Way galaxy. It could harbour 100 trillion stars, and possibly the largest black hole discovered, with estimate reaching up to 70 billion solar masses, even larger than TON 618, and a schwarzchild radius of 1380 AU. In this simulation, it is compared to the current largest star, Stephenson 2-18, and the Primordial Quasi-Star.
