There is a far greater concentration of stars, than what we have here in our neighborhood. One interesting feature in the center of the Milky Way is a huge black hole, whose mass is currently estimated at 4 million times the mass of our Sun.

Near the center of the Milky Way lies a supermassive black hole called Sagittarius A* (pronounced "Sagittarius A-star"). This black hole has a mass equivalent to about 4 million times that of our Sun and is surrounded by a cluster of stars orbiting around it at high speeds.
