In particular, on the basis of the secular evolutionary increase in the orbital period of the microquasar SS 433 that we discovered, we managed to prove that the relativistic object here is a black hole, and the SS 433 system itself evolves as a semi-detached system due to the fact that the distance between its components increases with time, which prevents the formation of a common envelope.
