Advanced high-energy telescopes are now illuminating these elusive phenomena, revealing "supermassive" black holes, which can be millions or billions of times heavier than our sun, residing at the cores of nearly all galaxies, including our Milky Way. What dangers await those who venture too near? And is there more beyond the event horizon—perhaps a gateway to another dimension or universe filled with more black holes?
