Answer:

The Galactic Center (or Galactic Centre) is the rotational center, the barycenter, of the Milky Way galaxy. Its central massive object is a supermassive black hole of about 4 million solar masses, which powers Sagittarius A*, a compact radio source which is almost exactly at the galactic rotational center.
