The newly discovered black hole is about 17 billion times more massive than our sun. Another black hole is currently listed in the Guinness World Records as the heaviest, because it may be as much as 21 billion solar masses. But the measurement of that black hole was not very precise and it might actually be less massive than the new one, which is described in this week's issue of the journal Nature.
"It has highest confidence of anything I've seen of being the largest black hole," saysKarl Gebhardt, an astrophysicist at the University of Texas, Austin and expert on black holes. He was not involved in the study.

Let it go...get a life. Both groups are corrupt.
Black holes matter
Current astrophysics is a whimsical joke. Their whole of existence revolves around postulation and best guesses for the most part.
The universe is governed by electricity and plasma not gravity.
Do a little open minded research on the 'Electric Universe' and see the proven facts not the mainstream speculation and guessing.
We live by the known laws of physics,so everything regarding black holes is still somewhat theoretical.Based on my calculations,black holes throughout the universe will eventually align.The alignment will create a concentration of energy thousands of times stronger than a single black hole.That concentrated energy burst will generate a tidal wave of massive energy that will travel outward 360 degrees at the speed of light.The exact date of the alignment is impossible to predict,but the exact time of the impact to Earth will be predictable after the outburst has occurred,because astronomers will actually see the outburst when it occurs.The good news is that the shock wave may take a lifetime to reach us.If the big bang physics
apply the impact to earth could be much much faster.
