The monster black hole lurking at the center of galaxy M87 is an absolute beast. It is one of the largest in our vicinity and ...
Earlier this year, new research suggested a potential solution to one of the most troubling aspects of modern physics — that ...
A controversial theory suggests the observable universe is the result of matter rebounding after the collapse of a black hole in another parent universe.
NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory has captured a striking image of a distant quasar from the "cosmic noon," including a giant energy jet "being illuminated by the leftover glow from the Big Bang itself ...
The sharpest images of the universe are created when radio telescopes around the world work together. For the first time, the ...
Burdge calculated that the distant star was about 3,500 astronomical units (AU) from the black hole. To put that into perspective, one AU is the distance between the Earth and the Sun. This means ...
Astronomers have observed the most massive and oldest black hole jet ever, emanating from quasar J1601+3102. Stretching over 200,000 light-years, this jet offers a unique view into the universe ...
(via Sabine Hossenfelder) White holes are theoretical bodies in physics that are basically time-reversed black holes, meaning instead of permanently trapping matter inside themselves, they release it ...
A supermassive black hole lurking at the heart of a relatively close galaxy is firing off a rapid-fire slew of ultrafast gas "bullets" into the surrounding galaxy. This is the conclusion of an ...
Using light at a frequency of 345 GHz, they’ve peered deeper into the regions around black holes than ever before. This marks the first time such high-frequency observations have been achieved ...
At least, that’s the conclusion of an international team of researchers that applied geometric structures inspired by particle physics and string theory to the behavior of black holes when the ...
