NASA to Announce Success of Long Galactic Hunt?

WASHINGTON -- NASA has scheduled a media teleconference Wednesday, May 14, at 1 p.m. EDT, to announce the discovery of an object in our Galaxy astronomers have been hunting for more than 50 years. This finding was made by combining data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory with ground-based observations.

Sounds interesting? anyone have any idea's just what they have been looking for? seems like it must have been something pretty major for them to have spent 50 years looking for it?

It is already discussed here NASA about to announce something Big?

I think it likely that it is related to this www.space.com...

Also news.nationalgeographic.com...

Unless they have already found it i suspect this is what will be announced.

Your first link is not working; anyway bright chances for a Black Hole as they said it is within our galaxy; here we have a new find

Piece of Missing Cosmic Matter Found

Astronomers have found a piece of the universe's puzzle that's been missing for awhile: a type of extremely hot, dense matter that is all but invisible to us.

Engaging in something like cosmic accounting, astronomers have tried to balance the scant amount of matter that has been directly observed with the vast amount that remains unobserved directly. The latter constitutes about 90 percent of the universe's matter.
