In this episode, we explore a strange and amazing discovery of a blob of gas that is orbiting the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy, and shooting powerful gamma-ray radiation at Earth every 76 minutes. We explain what this blob is, how it was detected, where it came from, and what it means for our knowledge and curiosity about the black hole and the galaxy. We also discuss some of the questions and implications that this discovery raises for future research.
