Ejected Black Hole or Huge Star?

Not sure if this has been posted, worthy of attention. Anyone with astronomy knowledge? What's your take?

  • Tough one. On the one hand there's no obvious gravitational lensing to point to a black hole, on the other hand 90 million years is way too recent for it to be a nebula created from a star with a mass close to that of a supermassive black hole. The multiple bright spots would suggest a nebula though.
