DescriptionGRS 1915+105.gif	This animation compares the largest system, GRS 1915+105, discovered in 1992, with its diminutive cousin H1705-25, discovered in 1977 when it erupted as an X-ray nova. Their black holes are thought to weigh, respectively, 15 and 7 solar masses. The accretion disk of GRS 1915 may extend more than 50 million miles (80 million kilometers), greater than the distance separating Mercury from the Sun.
