Black holes are everywhere. They can be left behind as the remnant of a massive star that exploded long ago, being just a few times the mass of our own Sun. Supermassive black holes, containing the mass of million or billions of Suns, sit at the centers of many galaxies. There has been controversy in the astronomical literature about the existence of intermediate mass back holes, and new evidence for one such "middle child" has been presented for an x-ray source in a distant galaxy.
