The correct answer would be: a black hole.

It's wrong

I apologize for the incorrect answer. The correct answer should be: a supermassive black hole.

The correct answer is "a black hole" as it is believed that most, if not all, galaxies including the Milky Way have a supermassive black hole at their center.
