BRAZILIAN ASTRONOMERS TO STUDY BLACK HOLES IN THE MILKY WAY 
                                                            
RIO DE JANEIRO (Sept. 14) XINHUA - brazilian astronomers    
will launch a small Satellite to investigate the black holes
discovered in the milky way.                                
                                                            
The satellite, 30 meters in diameter, and to be launched by 
the national Institute of space inquiry (Inpe) in november, 
will carry 35 gama ray Detectors.                           
                                                            
Gama rays are the most violent phenomenon in the universe.  
The 35 detectors Will constitute a image telescope that will
reconstruct the forms of objects 1,100 light years away.    
                                                            
The inpe will also launch another satellite at the same time
with gama ray Detector.                                     
                                                            
Gama rays have the highest frequency in the electromagnetic 
spectrum and are Blocked by earth's atmosphere. However,    
these may be observed outside the Atmospheric strata via    
satellites.                                                 
                                                            
It is known that when a star ages and exhausts its nuclear  
center, it turns Into a neutron star or a black hole.
