Black hole at heart of Milky Way about to have a snack

RE: Black hole at heart of Milky Way about to have a snack
Point of pedantic clarification: this truly fascinating event will have aready happened some 30,000 years ago and we are only beginning to see the light etc from it round about now. I'm continually amazed that our science (or "crapola", apparently) has advanced in such a relatively short time to the level where we are able to detect and witness such a once-in-a-lifetime event.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
