Gaia BH3 (Gaia DR3 4318465066420528000) is a binary system consisting of a metal-poor K2 star and a stellar-mass black hole. Gaia BH3 is located 1926 light years away (590.6±5.8 pc away) in the constellation of Aquila, making it as of 2024 the heaviest known black hole system second-closest to Earth. Gaia BH3 is the first black hole discovered from preliminary Gaia DR4 astrometric data.
The black hole and star orbit the system barycentre every 11.6 years, with an orbital distance ranging from 4.5–29 AU. The black hole's mass is 32.70 M☉, the heaviest known stellar black hole in the Milky Way.
Discovery
Gaia BH3 was originally found by astrometric observations with Gaia in 2015 and became a black hole binary candidate by the European Space Agency on 16 April, 2024.
