"Black holes really do sit at the frontier of human understanding." Scientists have discovered that some supermassive black holes rotate much more rapidly than expected. The discovery came as the ...

Rather than succumbing to star-shredding tidal forces, such a white dwarf would instead trickle-feed a small fraction of its matter to the black hole. This could offset the orbital energy being ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) Supermassive black holes are spinning faster than previously thought, challenging the notion that they primarily form through galaxy mergers. Instead, their ...

Supermassive black holes, these cosmic giants lurking at the heart of galaxies, continue to intrigue scientists. A recent study, combining data from NASA's IRAS and NuSTAR telescopes, reveals that ...

The images show the Perseus Cluster and the Centaurus Cluster, each with a central black hole appearing as a bright white dot surrounded by patches and filaments of gas. In each image, a patch of ...

Using observations from 2017 and 2018, the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) Collaboration has advanced our understanding of the supermassive black hole at the center of Messier 87 (M87*). This study ...

"Finding more supermassive black holes that are potentially hosting jets raises the question as to how these black holes grew so big in such a short timescale." Astronomers have discovered a ...

Royal Enfield Bullet 350 Battalion Black is the mid variant in the Bullet 350 lineup and is priced at Rs. 1.74 Lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). This Battalion Black variant comes with an engine putting ...

The first black hole that astronomers observed "turning off" just turned back on, releasing jets of hot gas into the cosmos. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

Jets from black holes trigger cooling in the hot gas, causing it to condense into warm filaments. These filaments then flow toward the black hole, feeding it, and the cycle repeats. Brightness ...
