## Resource

Can an ultra-compact dwarf galaxy have a supermassive black hole at its center? Are there galaxies whose supermassive black holes aren’t even in their galactic centers? To find out, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome “the other” Dr. Matt Taylor, Assistant Prof. of Astronomy at University of Calgary, who joins us from the control room of the largest astronomical telescope in Canada.
