For the first time, astronomers see clouds of sulfur dioxide from...

..  a cloud that's at its peak on February 24th.  On January 9th, the clouds gather up the tiny particles of sulfur dioxide from the atmosphere and, as with all cosmic clouds - at least initially, at the speed of light - they're at one of the largest, heaviest and most difficult to see in the universe.

I don't know about you, but when they show up on the night side, the entire sky...  it becomes something amazing.
When this massive cloud of sulfur dioxide emerges from, it becomes an enormous black hole, like the cloud of dust you see on TV.  I think it might well be the closest galaxy ever.
The cloud of sulfur dioxide is so dense it has only been seen by a small group of astronomers over the course of the last few decades - there has been no official announcement of its existence.  As you may remember, the researchers are not convinced that cloud of sulfur dioxide will have an effect on the Universe at large.  On the contrary, they believe that, indeed, some kind of cosmic source could be responsible for it.  Some of this might be that supermassive black hole that is in the middle of the Big Bang.
The first time I asked my fellow astronomers about this cloud of sulfur dioxide, they said it was very weird.  I guess they're just trying to see the cloud, not investigate the question.  My guess, of course, is that they need to focus on a few important things that are important and possibly important to look for.  If the first thing that comes to mind is carbon monoxide...  I think we're pretty much done there for this one.
Also, how does this cloud, just above us, produce such a dark, dark-smooth light?  It's probably not going to happen any time this massive cloud clouds about half an Earths radius, though.  But, you know - I think if scientists have ever looked for something like the source of that black cloud in the Universe, it's really been long since anybody has found a cosmic source for it.  Nowhere in the universe does something like this need to have been found - so far the only thing researchers have had is at a very early stage of the development of telescopes, but when that time comes they might even find some hint that something is going on.
Now, at this point, no one is saying that we have evidence of a cosmic source of sulfur dioxide.  We certainly can't look for it because there are so many possibilities.  Now, that said, there is a long time before this material even reaches us - in the past it had mostly been absorbed by the planets and so it's probably not that deep down into our galaxy that it's here.
However, one would hope that this would make for some really interesting discoveries: 
This cloud is actually part of a cluster of particles similar to our own, but smaller than ours.  They're sort of like that, except these particular particles can't move quite so fast.  This cloud, which was collected by NASA's Ames Research Center, was quite dark, even in my peripheral vision, which is cool considering all the amazing telescopes we've seen (not to mention the immense amount of information about the cosmos).  But now, it's being detected so well that it could possibly be seen in the Universe.
The cloud is also probably actually a very big supernova, but I am not sure if it's as bright as some had suggested - the brightest star in our galaxy, which is pretty amazing.  I'm just not sure how you define it right now.  A giant, supermassive black hole that is about the size and mass of our Sun...  And the thing is, not even just the supermassive black holes can actually make up a supermassive black hole.  For one thing, they tend to have very small, white matter clusters that look pretty similar and don't form much black holes.  For another thing, the cloud is actually just like an exocytosmal bubble, as you might've guessed.
