Okay, black holes are *really* spooky. Just found one that's about three solar masses.

Completely invisible and absolutely *tiny*. I couldn't see anything visually until I got within about 100km (!!!) and even then the body itself was invisible. I just started unexpectedly noticed all the background stars start warping and moving from the gravitational lensing.

This system is absolutely wild.

15 brown dwarfs
3 main sequence stars (one class B)
1 neutron star
1 black hole.
