RX J1242.6−1119A (often abbreviated RX J1242−11) is an elliptical galaxy located approximately 200 megaparsecs (about 650 million light-years) from Earth. According to current interpretations of X-ray observations made by the Chandra X-ray Observatory and XMM-Newton, the centre of this galaxy is a 100 million solar mass supermassive black hole which was observed to have tidally disrupted a star (in 1992 or shortly before). The discovery is widely considered to be the first strong evidence of a supermassive black hole ripping apart a star and consuming a portion of it.

| - RX J1242.6-1119A, häufig abgekürzt als RX J1242-11 bezeichnet, ist eine Galaxie im Sternbild Jungfrau in einer Entfernung von etwa 200 Mpc (ca. 650 Millionen Lichtjahre). Anfang 2004 konnte an dieser Galaxie erstmals beobachtet werden, wie ein supermassereiches Schwarzes Loch von einem in relativer Nähe befindlichen Stern Materie abzog und sich einverleibte. Durch die große Gravitations- und Gezeitenwirkung wurde der Stern förmlich zerrissen.Der Name leitet sich ab von RX J1242.6-1119, der Bezeichnung einer vom ROSAT als Galaxienpaar identifizierten Röntgenquelle.

- RX J1242-11 è una galassia situata prospetticamente nella costellazione della Vergine, approssimativamente a 200 Milioni di parsec (circa 650 milioni di anni luce) dal pianeta Terra. Secondo le odierne interpretazioni delle osservazioni ai raggi X registrate dal telescopio Chandra e da XMM-Newton,il centro di questa galassia è un buco nero supermassiccio di 100 milioni di masse solari la cui forza di marea è stata osservata distruggere una stella. La scoperta è largamente considerata essere la prima vera prova di un buco nero supermassiccio mentre squarcia una stella e ne consuma una porzione. (it)
