The bending of light as its path veers around a giant, invisible mass has revealed the presence of one of the biggest black holesyet detected in the Universe.

In a galaxy at the center of a massive cluster named Abell 1201, some 2.7 billion light-years away, lurks a cosmic colossus. Not content with being supermassive, the monster is an ultramassive black hole, clocking in at around 32.7 billion times the mass of the Sun.
