Check the link for all the info Quoting: Q33 For over one hundred years, astronomers have been puzzling over a mysterious source of brilliant flares, far out in the universe. Now, thanks to a combination of hard work and excellent timing, they have the answer to this mystery. Since the late 1800s, telescopes have been capturing an unusual series of bright flashes coming from OJ 287, a galaxy roughly 3.5 billion light-years away. OJ 287 is known as a 'blazar' since it has an active black hole at its core, which emits energy and light as it gobbles down matter surrounding it. The unusual thing about OJ 287 is the seemingly random timing of the flares. While astronomers have timed them to show that they can expect two flashes every 12 years, their exact timing within that period is never the same! Over decades of studying this strange blazar, researchers have worked out the most likely explanation for how it behaves. Instead of playing host to just one supermassive black hole at its core, OJ 287 must have a binary pair - a larger primary orbited by a smaller companion. To match what astronomers see from this pair, the primary supermassive black hole must be one of the largest ever discovered, weighing in at 18 billion times more massive than our Sun! The smaller companion, which orbits the primary once every 12 years, has an estimated mass of around 100 million Suns. For comparison, Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the core of the Milky Way, is "only" about 4 million times the mass of the Sun. There is a third vital component of this system, as well. For the blazar to blast out radiation, there must be an immense accretion disk of gas and dust surrounding the primary black hole.
