How much did the EHT team win? The team who managed to create the first-ever image of the black hole back in April of this year has been awarded the 2020 Breakthrough Prize. This $3 Million dollar ...

Mysterious, ultra-high-energy cosmic rays have confused scientists for decades. Now, new research from Norway suggests supermassive black holes and their powerful winds might be the long-sought cosmic ...

Hailing from the small rural village of Nhlangulo in Mpangeni, north of KwaZulu-Natal, Xulu, 27, has defied the odds that ...

Researchers have finally confirmed that black holes spin. By watching the radio jet of the black hole at the center of the galaxy Messier 87, researchers were able to watch it tilt, a movement ...

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 ...

Astronomers have observed a supermassive black hole consuming a star outside a galaxy's center for the first time, challenging previous assumptions. The event, named "AT2024tvd," occurred 600 ...

A bomb from a black hole would probably be the most destructive weapon in the universe. Hypothetically, it could be created by wrapping one of these cosmic monsters in mirrors and waiting for it ...

Measurements of wind in a luminous galactic core reveal dense pockets of gas — a finding that calls for a rethink of how black holes interact with their host galaxies. Read the paper ...

A study published in Nature has established a new benchmark in modeling the universe's most extreme events: the collisions of black holes and neutron stars. This research, led by Professor Jan ...

A new study achieves unprecedented accuracy in modelling extreme cosmic events like black hole and neutron star collisions by calculating the fifth post-Minkowskian (5PM) order, crucial for ...

A prediction of the gravitational waves produced by interacting black holes achieves high precision and demonstrates the link between general relativity and geometry. Read the paper: Emergence of ...
