Universe Largest Blackhole explained atleast by researchers!!!

“Ultramassive black holes — that is, black holes with masses exceeding 10 billion solar masses — are probably not rare; several and even dozens of these colossal black holes may exist.” -Julie Hlavacek-Larrondo

The brightest, most luminous objects in the entire Universe are neither stars nor galaxies, but quasars, like S5 0014+81.

An illustration of an active black hole, one that accretes matter and accelerates a portion of it outwards in two perpendicular jets, is an outstanding descriptor of how quasars work. Image credit: Mark A. Garlick.

The sixth brightest quasar known so far, its mass was determined in a 2009 study: 40 billion Suns.

The mass of a black hole is the sole determining factor of the radius of the event horizon, for a non-rotating, isolated black hole. The most massive one of all is presently S5 0014+81, at 40,000,000,000 solar masses. Illustration credit: SXS team; Bohn et al 2015.

Its physical size would have a radius that’s 800 times the Earth-Sun distance, or over 100 billion kilometers.

This makes it the most massive black hole known in the entire Universe, as massive as the Triangulum galaxy, our local group’s third largest member.

It shines so brightly because large amounts of matter are falling into the center via an accretion disk, getting accelerated and producing light.

This object is known as a blazar, the brightest class of all active galaxies with supermassive black holes.

If it were located just 280 light years away, it would shine as brightly as our Sun does in the sky.

Instead, S5 0014+81 is over 22 billion light years away; we see it as it was just 1.6 billion years after the Big Bang.

A combination of supernovae, direct collapse black holes, and rapidly merging components could lead to a black hole so young and massive.

Its activity gives it away; more massive, inactive black holes may exist.
