Although it is widely accepted that most galaxies have supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at their centers^{1-3}, concrete proof has proved elusive. Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*)^4, an extremely compact radio source at the center of our Galaxy, is…

We present a spectrum of Sgr A* observed simultaneously on June 17, 2003 at wavelengths from 90 to 0.7 cm with the VLA. In the spectrum, we also include the measurements of Sgr A* observed on the same day with the GMRT at 49 cm, the SMA at…
