Sagittarius A* is the 32nd Interstellar Object, the 6th Milky Way Galaxy, and the 2nd Black Hole obtained in The Beyond Bubble Universe, which can generate Stardust. (Unlocked at Rank 26)
In-Game Description[]
"The supermassive black hole in the pit of the Milky Way is real and has a name: Sagittarius A star (Sgr A* for short). With a mass of 4.3 million Suns, it could fit inside Mercury’s orbit. No light escapes its grip, but images show EM emissions from matter orbiting it."
Traits[]
Common[]
- S Stars (Speed):
"The fastest stars in the galaxy helped us nail the black hole’s mass, density, and position. Their erratic, elliptical orbits all converge on it. S62, for one, zips around in 9.9 years at 10% of the speed of light, darting in as close as Uranus is to the Sun."
- Gravitational Singularity (Payout):
"Sgr A* ate a large meal in the 17th century, and the leftover radiation now makes the CND glow. But what of the stuff that fell into the black hole? General relativity says all the matter ends up at a point of infinite density—a singularity. Quantum theory disagrees."
Rare[]
- Milky Way (Payout):
"The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy that's rotating while speeding through space, like a hurricane crossing a dark ocean. A dense nucleus is embedded in a thin disk of gas and stars, all of which is encased in a massive sphere, or halo, of sparse stars."
Epic[]
- Cosmology (Speed):
"The scientific study of the universe asks the very biggest questions. How did it form? What came before? How does it work? Is it infinite? Will it die? All the pieces we observe—comets, moons, planets, stars, galaxies, nebulae, and even voids—provide some answers."
- Dark Matter (Payout):
"Dark matter acts like a superhero. It’s everywhere in space and yet invisible. Its gravity distorts huge objects that we can see. It can even buttress a dwarf galaxy against annihilation by a giant one. The duo of dark matter and dark energy make up 95% of the universe."
- Dark Energy (Discount):
"Little is known about dark energy, except that it’s repulsive. Opposing gravity, this strange force causes matter to scatter rather than attract, pushing our universe to expand faster and faster. Dark energy makes up 68% of the universe’s mass-energy density."
Constellations[]
- Eridanus (1.5x Speed):
"Eridanus, The River, is the longest constellation in the sky. It starts near Rigel and twists and turns all the way to its brightest star, Achernar ("River's End" in Arabic). It was named after Eridu, an early Sumerian city in the marshes of what is now southern Iraq."
- Hercules (2x Speed):
"The Roman warrior-god who defeated the Nemean lion (Leo), the Crab (Cancer), and Hydra, too, has a broad, squarish chest made of four stars, called the Keystone. Mighty Hercules is kneeling over Draco, the dragon he slew."
- Cygnus (1.5x Speed):
"This great Swan in flight, traced head to tail and wingtip to wingtip by two lines of stars, is also called the Northern Cross. Deneb (“tail” in Arabic) marks the bird’s tail and the top of the cross. This blue supergiant star will go supernova in a few million years."
Astronomy Mission[]
Sagittarius A*'s Astronomy Mission is Event Horizon.
"The black part of a black hole has an edge, a spherical radius where matter and energy can’t escape doom because they’d have to move faster than light. That’s impossible, even for photons. Telescopes can peer right up to the event horizon but never beyond it."

Achievements[]
- Hawking Radiation (Rank 3):
"Pairs of matter and antimatter particles destroy each other. At an event horizon, they could split up instead. One particle slips into the black hole. The other escapes, emitting radiation far too faint to detect and robbing the black hole of a tiny amount of mass."
- Time Dilation (Rank 6):
"All mass bends space-time, which means time moves more slowly at your feet—near Earth’s center of mass—than your head. Massive objects exaggerate time dilation. To an observer, an astronaut near a black hole appears to freeze in time. The astronaut sees no change."
