SMRTR summary
A supermassive black hole, 600,000 times the mass of our Sun, likely exists in the Large Magellanic Cloud, the closest galaxy to the Milky Way. This discovery came from studying hypervelocity stars moving at several million miles per hour, which were flung out of the galaxy by the black hole's gravitational force.
