Ereshkigal was the Goddess of the Underworld, where the Dead fed on earth and dust and from where there was no escape. And so it is with this stellar corpse. The Eye is a medium sized Black Hole of more than 28 solar masses. It may be the remnant of a truly supermassive star (est. more than 200 solar masses) or - more likely - the product of a multiple merger of smaller Black Holes, Neutron Stars or even 'intact' stars.
The Eye is orbited by a debris field of unknown proportions and also by three Brown Dwarfs, all of which are speculated to feed the Black Hole even further. As it sits deeply within the Nyauthai Ripple, it may be possible that a cascade of multiple supernovae occurred here, blasting away the surrounding gas and dust and creating the stellar corpses necessary to form the Eye.
