In the center of our Milky Way, there are supposedly a "swarm" of black holes or neutron stars orbitting Saggitarius A (Sgr. A*).

Think of 2 regular sized black holes first. Then compare a normal sized black hole and a supermassive black hole, such as Sgr. A*

Theorize! What do you believe would happen...

Gravity waves would be produced. Any time a large mass undergoes a large acceleration, it should produce gravity waves. As two black holes near each other, they are accelerated by gravity. It they hit straight on, there would be one big gravity wave pulse. If they ended up orbiting each other, they would give off regular sine waves of gravity. Since gravity waves carry energy, the orbital energy of the two black holes would be gradually taken away, resulting in them spiraling into each other. Even though these objects are far away, their masses are so high that it is believed these gravity waves should be detectable from Earth. But they would be EXTREMELY weak and take an experiment with unbelievable sensitivity to detect.

Nothing. They would just pass through each other.
Black holes are being discovered in the center of all the galaxies we've managed to view. Contrary to popular, and unsubstantiated belief, Black Holes appear to contribute to the process of life, or rather the process of igniting stars. They are also believed to be Celestial Vacuum Cleaners; cleaning up the mess left by stellar creation. They stop 'spinning' if the mass around them is sparse so they appear to be still during this time.

Why would a denser object (black hole) orbit a less dense object (Sgr A*)? Oh, so Sgr A* is a black hole... The black holes would just suck each other up and become one really big black hole.

I'm not a physicist...I know that some black holes are thought to spin, but I wasn't aware that they moved. Regardless, if they were to converge, I think much of the interaction would depend on their respective masses and spin. It's possible a very massive one could swallow up the other, or if they were of similar mass and spin, they could create an elliptical hole. Not sure what would happen to all the energy, but I'm sure it would be interesting.

it is not authentic. A cat does not unexpectedly exchange how your lady chum feels approximately you until it walked up and informed her you have been a foul guy or woman or something, that's extremely unlikely, so extra desirable than probably she became going to break up with you besides. It additionally can no longer administration time, so needless to say you have been in basic terms caught via being out after curfew... considering you have been out after curfew to start with. undesirable issues ensue to human beings for all time, and that they many times don't have something to do with cats walking around. If this became the comparable cat each and every time, in keeping with possibility it likes you.

It will create one big black hole. And galaxies merging with other galaxies are happening in real life and you could see the pictures if you search the net

It is called the
Perfect Black Hole
So big and so dark that no one can hear you scream

When two highways merge, they become one super highway. Thereby......when two black holes merge, they become one super black hole.
