Hypervelocity stars (HVSs) were first theorized to exist in the late 1980s. In 2005, the first discoveries were confirmed.

Researchers said on Thursday that they had discovered twin-lobed radio jets they suspect were formed when the universe was ...

New details have been discovered about M87*, the first black hole ever photographed, revealing its plasma, its brightness and ...

"Our measurements imply that the supermassive black hole mass is 10% of the stellar mass in the galaxies we studied." Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have discovered ...

Black holes aren't just gorging themselves on whatever cosmic material is readily available—they're preparing those meals for themselves. Data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory reveals that ...

No, really. According to a new scientific model produced in the study, which was led by Valeria Olivares from the University of Santiago de Chile, black holes are surrounded by gas of varying ...

Scientists are eager to observe the potential 2026 flare, which could provide valuable data to refine existing models of black hole behaviour and tidal disruption phenomena.
