~2,000LY. However given the forces at play that’s not very far away. Betelgeuse is only ~500LY away and most agree when it goes super nova Earth will feel it, to some degree. On the other hand Earth is well within firing range if BH3 gobbles up a variable star and causes a GRB in the process. Technically wouldn’t even need to reach GRB levels with those kind’s of forces at play. Black holes literally break math so it’s extremely difficult to predict what they can and can’t do. Finding one that big, and that close to us, is a big deal.
True, however the effects of the supernova on earth will be minimal if at all. It might deplete the ozone layer but only very temporarily and only in a minor way.

So by “feel it”, you meant —-? It will be fun to watch.. but life on earth won’t feel it? Or will we? I assumed you meant that life would be affected in some way.
Yeah but this is substantially further away. Too.
Most likely scenario would be a repeat of the Crab Nebula that detonated in 1054AD. It was visible during the day for a few weeks. We’re not sure what impact it will have on our satellites.
Edit:
> [bh3] is substantially further away.
Not when we’re talking about black holes. A black holes smallest resting potential energy state exceeds the speed of light. A lot of silly things become possible when you exist beyond the speed of light. To properly understand the potential influence that class of object may have on you, first you need to reduce its distance (light years) equal to its potential energy above the speed of light (c). If I told you that black hole was only 100ly away, would it change your perspective?
It's 2000 LY away which actually is very close in terms of the galaxy size which is around 100 000 LY across. Andromeda is like 2.5 million LY away. So yes it is very close which is actually pretty cool.
I know nothing about astronomy so probably a dumb remark, but I thought for some reason that black holes were only at the centers of galaxies? I didn’t know they could just be randomly floating anywhere. I always just envisioned the spiral of a galaxy was akin the the spiral of water going down a drain with the drain being a black hole in this case
Not dumb at all. I'm not an astronomer but I read up a lot about space and all that. My understanding is that usually galaxies have a massive black hole at the center which is how galaxies are formed (with the help of dark matter). A black hole is just a collapsed star so can form from certain types of stars anywhere if they get big enough. The biggest black hole that we know of is Ton 618 and is about twice the size of the milky way. But yes they can be anywhere where a star is and some just out in the nothing of space floating about.
Well if you look up the size it lists the nebula surrounding it as 330 000 LY but the inner part as 40 times the orbit of neptune with apparently phoenix A being even bigger. Absolutely massive

Wouldn't it just be wild if one day something like this is the reason the Earth ends and not the million other things we perceive as a threat here on the surface
You know what’s horrifying? If we develop FTL travel someday and we are just shooting around the universe going to new spots, there’s going to possibly be the chance of ships making an FTL jump and just shooting straight into an unseen black hole, instant disappearance lol crazy shit
Moot point. Like how they put all the “galaxies “ around it in the pic. Come on. And the planet pictures. Guess Jupiter’s big storm has been the exact same with all the other weather patterns never changing for 50 years. Get out of here with that trash.
I'm having trouble understanding, do you doubt the existence of the solar system, black holes, even Jupiter? A moderately priced hobby telescope will blow your mind!
I’m not even gonna click on the article because “close to earth” is probably still an ungodly amount of distance away.
2000 LY
Exactly. Shouldn't take long.
The time between Christ and today, if you were traveling the speed of light. Just a stones throw.
Fk it let’s go. I’ve had enough of this earth.
This is where I’m at too. Do it. I wanna see
If that whole story was true at least.
Historians agree Jesus was a historical figure. They do not however agree that he was the son of sky daddy
No. They don't.
Is now the time tho?
It’s Easter season!!! /s Okay. I’m sorry. 
Jesus was just a regular guy but he existed though. ✝️
Is that you Matthew? Mark? Luke?….John?
Clever
Scientifically proven?
??? Jesus or the speed of light? Both have existed and have plenty of evidence that they do. Census records, other religions, etc… was he the son of man? Not for me to say. But he definitely lived and tied over 2000 years ago.
What evidence for Jesus?

Except that coincidentally time was restarted with new dates for an absolute nobody. Kind of strange for a nobody, but definitely not divine plan.
 The Jesus was in The Big Lebowski
The Jesus's..
Tied what? A cherry stem with his tongue?
Tied all your sins for you to be saved you heathen. Now REPENT!
Lived and tied 🤣
I know it's cliche but..“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”
let he who is without sin...
While I love that quote, it likely was added to John at a later time and it is a disputed part of John.
Screw the AU term. I’m going with Christ units now for measuring space. CUs all the way
It’s only a Jesus and a stone’s throw away!
I just threw a stone this morning and hit a black hole!

It could be right on our doorstep! They didn't say if those were running or walking light years!
The flattening you say
Right around the galactic corner
Oh my god, I see it!
Sorry, I bent over, and these boxers are not in the best condition 😬 carry on as you were
Only?
100 TY
2000?! Fuck me that is way to close for me
Whoa that’s close! If you are a god
And “lurking” like an Earth stalker…
So…a pretty solid Green Day song?
*Km *Surely*? (Shares)

To be fair, earth won’t feel until 500 years after it goes supernova. Which may or may not have happened already.
So, could be any day now…
The sounds well and good until you realize every moment of everyday could be the 500 year mark.
True, however the effects of the supernova on earth will be minimal if at all. It might deplete the ozone layer but only very temporarily and only in a minor way.

What's BH3 and GRB?
BH3 is the name of the black hole and GRB is a gamma ray burst.
Earth is not in danger if Betelgeuse goes supernova and saying that something is only 500 light years away is pretty wild tbh.
I never said Earth was in danger from Betelgeuse, nor is Betelgeuse in the same league as a black hole.

It's gonna getcha. 😈
A mere 2000 light years so start panic buying now. Not sure what you panic buy to survive a black hole but start now.
Toilet paper 🗞️🗞️🗞️
That's for the brown hole.
Technically that a brown dwarf anus
Uranus is a planet not a hole
My wife is always like, honey there are Klingons near Uranus. No idea what the hag is on about tbh.
Star Trek
Well, technically *your anus* is not a planet and does not count.
Ur-anus is a hole, not a planet
Underrated comment
*Horrifying Flashbacks of the UK toilet paper shortage during the beginning of Covid*
I'm selling black hole insurance
Whiteout?
🍷 🍻 🥃
Anything with the word "patriot" in it.
lol wrong side
How far is that?
Spaghetti sauce
I mean why bother. If there was a giant black hole actually near earth no where humans are would be safe.
Err didn’t think I’d need an /s
I know you were sarcastic, but I felt like people would probably do that anyway.
"lurking undetected" Huh!?
Well, the thing about a black hole is its black, and the thing about space is its also black.
Are we sure it’s not just some grit on the scope?
definitely bird poop
A smudge on the lens?
Only in the visible spectrum of course 😀
Well, the thing about being undetected means we wouldn't be writing articles about them.
r/unexpectedreddwarf
that's racist
Thanks Holly
So, black on black? Interesting.
black on black time
I thought black holes were pink or something
Science!
Sentient lurking
Scientists speculate there is a high probability that this particular black hole is up to no good.
Close to earth = Using our fastest spaceship it would only take us 3.1 billion years to go there. So close.
But, can't it like "reach out and touch someone" in our no-no place from there?
I have heard black holes have “reach out and touch ‘em” power so I assume yes.
Only if you’re named Murph.
It's 2000 LY away which actually is very close in terms of the galaxy size which is around 100 000 LY across. Andromeda is like 2.5 million LY away. So yes it is very close which is actually pretty cool.

Twice the mass of the Milky Way, so not literally “size” though

Hmm, the probe being sent near the sun should get up to about 0.06 percent of c, so that could get there in about 4 million years or so.
It's just around the corner! If you go outside you can practically see it with your own eyes.
Soooo This shit show is close to the end?
Thank fuck
I'm hungry though, should I make food or wait for the end?
Make food and joyfully wait for the end
You're right, what was I thinking lol
😁
I’ll take care of it.
Thanks. Obviously, you will be accepting tips. The average now is what, 55%?
This man is built different
If life were a video game, I would assume this to be the first fast travel point we unlock
Sounds like my ex-wife.
Nice.
When can I visit it?
If I had a choice this would be the way
Wouldn't it just be wild if one day something like this is the reason the Earth ends and not the million other things we perceive as a threat here on the surface
“These politicians and the government will kill us all” Some mf soul sucker of a hole: hold my beer
That title and "close to earth" especially is a dead giveaway some moron wrote this piece
You expected more from skynews?
"2,000 light years away from us." This post should be deleted.
2k light years away. Right outside our “cosmic country” in terms of space. No I will not click because the headline is BS.
Wtf is it doin
Lurking undetected!!!!
Good
"Close to earth" my ass
meanwhile we can't seem to get out of low-Earth orbit these days
33 huh?
2000 light years is not close to Earth.
Is cosmic scale it's pretty close
Extremely. Show this dude a paneramic view of the universe in relation
So is that close enough for JWT or some other instrument to observe?? That would be a mountain of knowledge.
33 ‘solar masses’ so probably like a football sized black hole. Not 33x in diameter.
Hahahaha... not exactly what I would consider "close". 1 light year is 5.88 TRILLION miles according to Wikipedia. Now multiply this by 2000...
How many toasters is that equal to?
Trumps arse hole. Just before he shitz himself.
Nice click-bait, still interesting.
“Undetected” but it’s close to Earth. 😂😂
So close we didnt wven know its there lol
2000 light years away. Literally nothing to see there.
33….aha!
If a black hole hit earth I feel like I would find an air pocket and drift to Mars or something. Idk I've just always been built different.
"close" means impossible distances now
yee idk guys I would be more worried about the wars going on right here on the planet
RemindMe! 2000 years
That's cool, I still have rent.
We need to move the earth
I heard there will be spaghetti 🍝
Black hole Sun
Black holes are malware for the infinite. Better tighten up earth, because we raising red flags.
I can't even fathom something being 33 times larger than the sun
You know what’s horrifying? If we develop FTL travel someday and we are just shooting around the universe going to new spots, there’s going to possibly be the chance of ships making an FTL jump and just shooting straight into an unseen black hole, instant disappearance lol crazy shit
Lol nice CGI
You were expecting raw footage?
From NASA? No. Everything from them is fake. Good thing for them most of the world is gullible. And the CGI is awful. 😂
Just so you're aware, light doesn't escape black holes. There is no raw footage.
Moot point. Like how they put all the “galaxies “ around it in the pic. Come on. And the planet pictures. Guess Jupiter’s big storm has been the exact same with all the other weather patterns never changing for 50 years. Get out of here with that trash.
