Black holes are points in space that are so dense they create deep gravity sinks. Beyond a certain region, not even light can escape the powerful tug of a black hole's gravity. And anything that ...

Using the Japanese-led X-ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM), astronomers have taken a deep look into a fascinating ...

"The results we are obtaining are truly unexpected, and all point to a super Eddington-type growth mechanism for black holes.

How astronomers used gravitational lensing, a space-time trick predicted by Einstein, to detect a black hole measuring 30 ...

The M87 galaxy is home to a supermassive black hole that has a plasma jet that is nearly 3000 light years long. In addition, ...

Peculiar James Webb Space Telescope observations seem to show gargantuan black holes in the earliest moments of the universe.

Astronomers have stumbled upon a pair of massive black holes in a distant galaxy that are triggering unusual bursts of light ...

Researchers using XMM-Newton and Chandra telescopes have linked X-ray emissions from 21 distant quasars to rapid supermassive ...

Black holes don't have many identifying features. They come in one color (black) and one shape (spherical). The main ...

Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, general relativity, is famously incomplete. As proven by physics Nobel laureate Roger ...

Buried in the treasure trove of the Gaia catalog were two strange black hole systems. These were black holes orbiting ...
