The universe is vast and full of miracles or horrors depending on who you ask. Now, astronomers have photographed a galaxy with a pair of black holes at its heart. The duo is the nearest supermassive black hole pairing to Earth ever found. The galaxy known as NGC 7727, was created by a billion-year-long collision between two other galaxies. A long drawn-out process indeed.
