The flares help illuminate researchers&#8217; understanding of the black holes within.<\/p>\n<p>The flare came from a supermassive black hole that&#8217;s 10 billion light years away, making the flash the most distant one observed so far. It hails from a time when the universe was rather young. A light year is nearly 6 trillion miles.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The latest cosmic display was spotted in 2018 by a camera at the Palomar Observatory in California. It took about three months to shine at peak brightness and has been decaying in the years since.<\/p>\n<p>It likely happened because a large star wandered too close to the black hole and got shredded to pieces.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;At first, we didn&#8217;t really believe the numbers about the energy,&#8221; said study author Matthew Graham with the California Institute of Technology, which operates Palomar.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-medium\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/11\/04\/df6b6521-b556-433f-ad8c-52dc498c2f44\/thumbnail\/620x349g2\/54cc93f137dfdec600464ed759606a97\/ap25307672848890.jpg#\" alt=\"Black Hole Flare \" height=\"349\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/11\/04\/df6b6521-b556-433f-ad8c-52dc498c2f44\/thumbnail\/620x349g2\/54cc93f137dfdec600464ed759606a97\/ap25307672848890.jpg 1x, https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/11\/04\/df6b6521-b556-433f-ad8c-52dc498c2f44\/thumbnail\/1240x698g2\/699dee4b36a70e92763d3edac2757cb5\/ap25307672848890.jpg 2x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\">This illustration provided by Caltech shows a supermassive black hole shredding a large star to pieces, leading to a bright flare.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                Robert Hurt \/ AP<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The new findings were published Tuesday in the journal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41550-025-02699-0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Nature Astronomy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Almost every large galaxy, including our Milky Way, has a supermassive black hole at its center.

The discovery also allows scientists &#8220;to probe the interaction of supermassive black holes with their environments early in the universe,&#8221; said Joseph Michail with Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, which didn&#8217;t have a role in the new study. Those early interactions created the cosmos humans now call home.<\/p>\n<p>The oldest black hole yet discovered was <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/webb-telescope-nasa-discovers-black-hole-galaxy\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">spotted by scientists<\/a><\/span> in March 2024. That supermassive black hole was formed when our 13.8 billion-year-old universe was just 430 million years old. The black hole is at the center of a distant galaxy and is vigorously growing, researchers said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Another ancient supermassive black hole was <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/oldest-black-hole-found-behemoth-470-million-years-after-big-bang\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">discovered <\/a><\/span>by NASA researchers in 2023. That one was formed about 13.2 billion years ago, making it about 40 million years older than the one found in 2024. It is about 10 times bigger than the Milky Way&#8217;s black hole.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the <span class=\"link\"><a
