A closer look at "A star*"

Black Holes are points in space that are so dense they create deep gravity sinks. Beyond a certain region, not even light can escape the powerful tug of a black hole's gravity. And anything that ventures too close—be it a star, planet, or spacecraft—will be stretched and compressed like putty in a theoretical process aptly known as spaghettification. 

The Milky Way hosts its own supermassive black hole at its center known as Sagittarius A* (pronounced “ay star”) that is more than four million times as massive as our sun.
