'''Hen 2-10''' is a [[dwarf galaxy]] located 34 million light years away in the constellation of [[Pyxis (constellation)|Pyxis]].<ref name="NED"/> It is the first dwarf galaxy ever discovered that contains, at its center, a [[supermassive black hole]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2011/01/110110-dwarf-galaxy-black-holes-universe-science-space/|title=Huge Black Hole Found in Dwarf Galaxy|last=Kaufman|first=Rachel|date=10 January 2011|work=[[National Geographic Society|National Geographic]]|accessdate=1 June 2011}}</ref> This discovery was surprising since the black hole was about one quarter of the size of the black hole at the center of the [[Milky Way Galaxy]], despite the fact that the galaxy is roughly one thousandth the size of the Milky Way. This discovery suggests that the black holes found at the center of most large galaxies may have formed before the galaxies themselves.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2011/01/dwarf-galaxy-black-hole/|title=Baby Galaxy Hosts Monster Black Hole |last=Grossman|first=Lisa|date=10 January 2011|work=[[Wired News]]|accessdate=3 July 2011}}</ref> Recent estimates have placed the mass of this black hole around <math>3\times10^6M_\bigodot</math>, and the mass of the entire dwarf galaxy at about <math>10^{10}M_\bigodot</math>.<ref name="Amy et al 2016"/> |
