The largest known black hole has a mass of 18 billion Suns!
Located 3.5 billion light years away, this black hole is SO massive that it weighs six times as much as the previous record-holder and is contains about the same mass as a small galaxy!
The gravitational field of the giant is so strong that it actually causes a smaller black hole with the mass of 100 million Suns to orbit it! At two points in every 12-year orbit, the smaller hole gets close enough to break through the matter on the outer edge of the larger hole, which causes an outburst that makes the surrounding quasar suddenly brighten. A quasar is a bright celestial object into which matter entering a black hole emits large amounts of radiation.

Venezuela just suspended its first driver's license EVER!
As the top oil-producing country in South America, Venezuela strongly values the rights of its drivers. Gasoline typically only costs 12 cents per gallon, most of the population speeds regularly, and authorities rarely test for drunk driving.
However, in 2008 the government introduced a law allowing for the suspension of a citizen’s driver’s license. The law had not been employed, until 41-year-old Ramon Parra decided to speed in a bus that had too many passengers and was missing a wheel! This behavior warranted a 12-month suspension - the first of its kind that Venezuelans have EVER seen.
