The James Webb Space Telescope has captured a groundbreaking image of the Sombrero Galaxy, revealing new details about its ...
Thousands of these stellar-mass black holes may lurk within our own Milky Way galaxy. Supermassive black holes, predicted by Einstein's general theory of relativity, can have masses equal to ...
Black hole in ULAS J1120+0641 has record mass compared to its galaxy. Quasar's black hole is 1.4 billion solar masses, half its galaxy's mass. Astronomers used JWST to uncover details about this ...
How did supermassive black holes end up at the center of every galaxy? A while back, it wasn't that hard to explain: That's where the highest concentration of matter is, and the black holes had ...
Astronomers have discovered a supermassive black hole at the center of a galaxy just 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang that is consuming matter at a phenomenal rate -- over 40 times the ...
For decades, astronomers have puzzled over how the supermassive black holes residing in the center of galaxies form. Now, researchers may have found the biggest clue yet to how these monstrous ...
13 in the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics. The dual black holes are in the center of a galaxy called 2MASX J21240027+3409114, located 1 billion light-years away in the northern constellation ...
A supermassive black hole in the early Universe is the most voracious of its kind we've ever seen. It's sitting in the middle of a galaxy called LID-568, as seen just 1.5 billion years after the Big ...
(This black hole dwells in a galaxy born around 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang — which is means it's relatively young. The universe is some 13.8 billion years old.) It's possible that ...
NASA's Swift observes rare dual black hole disrupting a gas cloud Cyclical gas flares reveal black holes orbiting each other Swift’s data offers insight into black hole behaviour and galaxy evolutio ...
