NASA Astronomers Zero In on the Number of Hidden Supermassive Black Holes
Researchers found far more hidden black holes than previously known, indicating plenty of behemoths lurking in thick clouds of gas and dust.
Feeding supermassive black holes are more common than thought across the universe
"If our eyes were able to detect X-rays, the sky would be full of dots. And every single one of those dots would be an accreting supermassive black hole."
Survey finds more hidden supermassive black holes than expected
Multiple NASA telescopes recently helped scientists search the sky for supermassive black holes—those up to billions of times heavier than the sun. The new survey is unique because it was as likely to find massive black holes that are hidden behind thick clouds of gas and dust as those that are not.

Over One-Third Of Supermassive Black Holes Are Hiding – Maybe Even More
At the center of almost every galaxy, there is a supermassive black hole. Well, astronomers think it’s every galaxy, but it is a difficult claim to confirm. Not because there might be many exceptions – the difficulty lies in the fact that many black holes are so well hidden that we wouldn’t know they are there.
There might be far more supermassive black holes hiding around us than we thought, scientists warn
The universe could be home to far more supermassive black holes than we realised, according to new research. Astronomers from the University of Southampton say that 35% of these galactic giants - some which are billions of times heavier than the sun - have gone undiscovered because they are obscured by thick clouds of gas and dust.
