Now, using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers may have cracked this puzzle, finding the first evidence of a ...

Unusual signals called quasi periodic eruptions appear to come from black holes, but we don't know what creates them. Now ...

A newly published study in The Astrophysical Journal has revealed the presence of a previously undetected supermassive black ...

Astronomers have confirmed a wandering black hole, about seven times the mass of the Sun, 5,000 light-years from Earth.

The infant universe's population of huge black holes could owe itself to ultralight dark matter, scientists say.

While it's much smaller than the largest supermassive black holes detected, it's still a whopper considering how early in the ...

The quasi-periodic eruptions of X-rays from a black hole 300 million light-years away are unlike any researchers have ever ...

The black hole at the heart of galaxy SDSS1335+0728, located 300 million light-years away, was quiet for decades as it ...

Astronomers have reached deeper into the heart of a brilliant cosmic engine than ever before, using NASA’s Hubble Space ...

More recently, they ran simulations, finding that for the light to bend around a black hole this way, it would have to measure roughly the same mass as 30 billion Suns, making it big enough to be ...

It is called a black hole, because it acts like an ideal black body, as it reflects no light. According to the theory of ...

But would these "primordial" black holes still exist, roughly 14 billion years after the big bang? Surprisingly, the answer depends on the number of spatial dimensions in the universe. And the ...
