Now, astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope have observed a black hole in the act of devouring a star, ripping it apart and creating a huge burst of radiation.

Astronomers have confirmed a wandering black hole, about seven times the mass of the Sun, 5,000 light-years from Earth.

Whether a galactic environment has the right conditions for habitable planets to form could depend on how the black hole in that galaxy is rotating.
