Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Robust empirical evidence, including high-resolution imaging and stellar orbital dynamics around Sagittarius A*, firmly confirms the presence of a supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way.

The analysis

The retrieved papers consistently reference Sagittarius A* as the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way, supporting stellar and accretion observations without any refuting evidence.
