Astronomers announce that they finally found a triple-asteroid system that is very near Earth. This is the first time that astronomers have found such as while the said system is known to exist, they are rarely found.

Some 300 million light years away from the Earth lurks what scientists think is a group of dark monsters that may hold the keys to some questions that has boggled scientific minds for decades. If you want the less figurative version, researchers at the Los Alamos Laboratories in New Mexico are looking at distant supermassive black holes as the holders of the clues as to where cosmic rays originate and what the bizarre "noises" scientists hear are.

Supermassive black holes were only recently discovered and have been known to dwell at the center of some galaxies. These bodies are black as space and are nearly invisible if not for the gas, dust and light that they suck in never to be released again. As the gas and light spiral towards the abyss, they become superheated and begin to blaze bright, making it possible for them to be detected.

That's exactly what the Los Alamos team found. In fact, this one had a trail of superheated matter 6 million light years in diameter. To funnel in such mass requires a gravitational pull of godly proportions, leading the study team to theorize that there may be a cluster of black holes involved. What's even more amazing is the fact that this cluster doesn't have a galaxy surrounding it. Research head Philipp Kroonberg wonders:

What kind of mechanism could create a cloud of such enormous dimensions that does not coincide with any single galaxy or galaxy cluster? Is that same mechanism connected to the mysterious source of ultra high energy cosmic rays that come from beyond our galaxy?

Though much still remains unanswered, the researchers say that these black holes may in fact be a catalyst for transforming matter and light into cosmic rays. The noise that was earlier mentioned may in fact be a remnant of the big bang that gave birth to the universe. Whatever the case, the astronomers are digging deep into it using the Arecibo Space Telescope in Puerto Rico. We'll tell you as soon as they find anything new.
