A supermassive black hole is the largest type of black hole, found at the center of most large galaxies, including our own Milky Way. These cosmic giants have masses millions to billions of times that of our Sun, and their immense gravity is so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape once it crosses their event horizon. They play a crucial role in galaxy evolution and power some of the universe's most energetic phenomena.
