In this image, TON 618, one of the largest black holes vs our solar system, is about 40 billion times the Sun’s mass.
Its diameter is roughly 30-40 times wider than our solar system, meaning it could easily engulf the entire solar system, including the distant Oort Cloud, within its immense gravitational pull.
