Nov 24, 2014 at 15:40 comment added K7PEH It is 100 million suns and Kip Thorne admits that realistically it should be on the order of 200 million suns but 100 million is the quoted number since it is sort of a nice sounding whole number.
Nov 24, 2014 at 15:36 comment added David Richerby Are you sure about those numbers? 150 million kilometres is about the radius of the Earth's orbit so, to my uninformed eye, 100 Suns seems like a very low mass for such a large object, especially as one naively thinks of black holes as being exceptionally dense.
