  The existence of stellar cusps in dense clusters around massive black holes
is a fundamental, decades-old prediction of theoretical stellar dynamics. Yet,
observational evidence has been difficult to obtain. With a new, improved
analysis of high-angular resolution images of the central parsecs of the
Galactic Center, we are finally able to provide the first solid evidence for
the existence of a stellar cusp around the Milky Way's massive black hole. The
existence of stellar cusps has a significant impact on predicted event rates of
phenomena like tidal disruptions of stars and extreme mass ratio inspirals.
