Discoveries keep pouring out of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Researchers observed an unusual cluster, which they ...
The new black hole has more than 200 times the mass of our sun – and is challenging theories of how objects form in space ...
Supermassive black holes spiral towards each other in this simulation created by NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center that ...
Yale astronomer Pieter van Dokkum and a team of researchers have discovered an object in space they call the "Infinity" ...
A U.S. gravitational wave detector spotted a collision between fast-spinning “forbidden” black holes that challenge physics ...
The powerful merger, designated GW231123, produced an extremely large black hole about 225 times the mass of our Sun.
But in the past two decades, new types of black holes have been seen and astronomers are beginning to understand how they ...
Using the XMM-Newton telescope, astronomers have witnessed high-speed "burps" erupting from a distant overfeeding supermassive black hole.
It’s a light show in space unlike any other. For the first time, scientists have detected light from behind a black hole, and it fulfills a prediction rooted in Albert Einstein’s theory of ...
Gravitational waves from most massive black hole collision ever observed challenge existing theories, as scientists suspect ...
The Hubble Space Telescope has found evidence of a "wandering" black hole about 5000 light years away in the Milky Way galaxy ...
And this polarized light is what teaches information about the mechanisms around how a black hole feeds and how its magnetic fields look like. And it feeds gas very, very slowly.
