  Introduction:-                         Figure: the first ever discovered blackhole The formation of the universe's first supermassive black holes (SMBHs) has perplexed astronomers for decades. Observations have revealed that these enormous black holes existed when the universe was less than a billion years old. Traditional growth models, which involve black holes forming from collapsing stars and then growing by accreting matter and merging with other black holes, fail to explain the rapid appearance of such massive objects in the early universe. However, recent studies and observations are shedding new light on this cosmic mystery. Traditional Black Hole Formation Models                         Figure:- First black hole image released by scientists Typically, black holes are thought to form from the collapse of massive stars. These stellar black holes can grow into SMBHs over billions of years through the gradual accumulation of gas and dust (accretion) and by merging with other
