Its a stellar black hole —the type that forms after stars die, collapse, and explode. Researchers had previously believed that the size limit was no more than 20 times the mass of our sun because 8S these stars die, they lose most of their mass through explosions that expel matter and gas swept away by stellar winds This theory has now been toppled by LB-1, the newly discovered black hole. Located about 15.000 light years away, it has a mass 70 times greater than our sun, according to a press release from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The findings were published by Chinese researchers in the journal Nature on Wednesday. Black boles of such mass should not even exist in our galaxy, according to most of the current models of stellar evolution, said Liu Jifeng, head of the team that made the discovery. LB-1 is twice as massive as what we thought possible. Now theorists will have to take up the challenge of explaining its formation. Scientists are now scratching their heads at how LB-1 got so huge. The Chinese team has proposed a number of theories. LB-1 sheer size suggests that it was not formed from the collapse of only one star, the study said — instead, it could potentially be two smaller black holes orbiting each other. Another possibility is that it formed from fallback supermova. This is when a supernoma  — the last stage of an exploding star —ejects material during the explosion, which then falls back into the supernova, creating a black hole. This fallback formation is theoretically possible but scientists have never been able to prove or observe it. If this is how LB-1 formed, then we may have direct evidence for this process for the first time, the study said. There are several types of black holes and stellar black holes like LB-1 are on the smaller side, according to NASA. Supermassive black holes are much
