Unprecedented Space Explosion Possibly Caused by Black Hole's Devastating Force

TL;DR Summary
Astronomers have discovered an unprecedented cosmic explosion named AT2022aedm, which emitted as much as 100 times more energy than a typical supernova and faded away in just 14 days. The explosion, located in a red galaxy 2 billion light-years away, is believed to be the result of a small or medium-sized black hole destroying a star. This new type of explosion, dubbed a "Luminous Fast Cooler" (LFC), has led scientists to consider models involving the destruction of stars by black holes. The discovery challenges previous assumptions about supernovas and offers insights into the role of black holes in the universe.
