The powerful black holes at the center of massive galaxies and galaxy clusters act as hearts to the systems, pumping energy out at regular intervals to regulate the growth of the black holes themselves, as well as star formation, according to new data from NASA's Chandra X-Ray Observatory.

Perhaps black holes should be reclassified black suns. They don't seem to be holes at all. A sun can absorb things that hit it just as black holes can. It's just that black holes (black suns) are much much bigger.
