Webb Space Telescope has spotted a supermassive black hole that appears to have been feeding at 40 times the theoretical limit for millions of years .

The Eddington Limit limits on how fast black holes can grow unless matter is fed directly into them.

The more matter there is, the brighter the accretion disk gets, and the more matter that gets driven off before it can fall in.
