The black hole occupies a volume of space about the same size as our solar system but it affects a volume of space about 600 times the size of the whole Milky Way galaxy.
That is unbelievable. Every time i try to think about that my brain oozes out of my ears. Which is why i can't see Moooore's picture. No seriously....the size of our solar system. And when you think a black hole is super compact (no air bubbles in that mess) so if you took all that matter and uncompressed it...dang

Sometimes I think that the big bang was a result of the last black hole in the universe swallowing the very last bit of matter and energy in the universe then burping.
