The disc of plasma surrounding the black hole at the heart of the Milky Way is constantly emitting flares both large and small.

Meanwhile, the longer, bigger flares may occur due to magnetic reconnection events, or when two different magnetic fields collide near the black hole and release energetic particles moving near ...
