The recent discovery of a stupendously powerful neutrino has left scientists scratching their heads. New research suggests it ...
New theory posits black holes may transition into ‘white holes’, ejecting matter and potentially even time itself, back into ...
For this reason black holes are invisible to the eye, as lightless as the empty, dark space surrounding them. Scientists know they exist not because they can see an actual hole, b ...
Astronomers have uncovered a baffling cosmic anomaly — a supermassive black hole in galaxy NGC 5084 that appears to be ...
Feb. 19, 2025 — Within the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument's early data, scientists have uncovered the largest samples ever of intermediate-mass black holes and dwarf galaxies hosting an ...
Astronomers have observed a flare of light near Sagittarius A, the supermassive black hole at the centre of the Milky Way galaxy. These bursts happen daily; some last seconds, others shine for a ...
It is a terrifying scenario straight out of science fiction. So, what would happen if you were struck by a primordial black hole? We already know that coming into contact with a stellar-mass ...
Asteroid-mass black holes are less than a micrometer across, so even the tidal forces would cover a tiny area. If one passed through your midsection or one of your limbs, there might be some local ...
Astrophysicists have observed our central supermassive black hole. They found the accretion disk is constantly emitting flares without periods of rest. Shorter, faint flares and longer ...
Illustration: NASA, ESA, CSA, Ralf Crawford (STScI) The black hole at the center of our galaxy is experiencing a flurry of flares, ranging from flickers to brilliant eruptions, according to a team ...
A rare collision between two supermassive black holes (SMBH) appears to have sent the resulting merger speeding through the universe, making it one of the fastest-moving black holes we have ever seen.
A rare instance of a supermassive black hole merger has been observed, resulting in a black hole exhibiting an unusually high proper motion. The New Scientist reported that this event holds ...
