A black hole that has been ejected from its galaxy and has a trail of stars behind it - this interpretation of a phenomenon in space is apparently not correct. A new study, published in the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics, now comes to a completely different conclusion.

"We offer a more conventional explanation: the stellar tail is a galaxy seen from the side without a bulge," the study said. "It is a relief to have found the solution to this problem," study leader Jorge Sanchez Almeida said.
