"Faint Radio Signal Suggests Rare 'Missing Link' Black Hole in Ancient Star Cluster"

Astronomers have detected a faint radio signal at the center of an ancient globular cluster, possibly originating from a long-hidden black hole or a pulsar. The discovery, made using the Australia Telescope Compact Array, provides a highly sensitive image of the cluster 47 Tucanae, offering potential insights into the existence of intermediate-mass black holes and pulsars. This finding could pave the way for future discoveries using next-generation radio telescopes.
