Jets blasting from supermassive black holes cause gas to cool and fall toward that cosmic titan in a cosmic feeding process.
The historic first image of the Messier 87 (M87) supermassive black hole, captured using the Event Horizon Telescope, has ...
First Step on the Way to a Video of the Black Hole In 2019, the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) Collaboration made history by ...
A new analysis of M87*, the first black hole imaged by humanity, has revealed turbulence in the matter around it, which this ...
OK, that was a little click-baity, but then again, so was the announcement this week that a scientist had confirmed Hawking radiation with a lab-grown black hole. It sure got our attention ...
After decades of study, scientists sound genuinely optimistic about the possibility of detecting primordial black holes, which might explain dark matter.
An illustration of two black holes about to merge into one. (Image credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech) The finding about LID-568's feeding frenzy was far from the last word on early supermassive black hole ...
Black holes are objects with an intense gravitational pull so strong that not even beams of light, the fastest things in the universe, can escape. This makes them impossible to see directly ...
