In the vastness of the Universe, some discoveries remind us how much we still have to learn. A recent study on Cosmic ...

Astronomers Stunned to Stumble on 'Cosmic Horseshoe' With a Black Hole the Size of 36 Billion Suns Experts have detected a ...

"The singularity is the most mysterious and problematic part of a black hole. It's where our concepts of space and time ...

Could our galaxy actually be inside a black hole? New research seems to suggest this possibility. NASA's James Webb Telescope ...

A supernova (bright spot at lower left) and its host galaxy (upper center), as they would appear if gravitationally lensed by an intervening black hole (center). The gravitational field of the ...

New research from a professor at the Kansas State University that used imaging from the James Webb Space Telescope gives ...

Black holes have such strong gravity that they warp the paths of everything passing near them, including light. This produces a characteristic lensing effect that distorts and magnifies things ...

The "Cosmic Horseshoe" is an Einstein ring, a system made up of a foreground galaxy whose mass is so great, it warps the light from a galaxy behind it. Now, astronomers know where it gets this mass ...

ESA's Euclid mission is exploring the "dark universe." The space telescope's latest images offer fascinating new insights.

It's titled "Unveiling a 36 Billion Solar Mass Black Hole at the Centre of the Cosmic Horseshoe Gravitational Lens," and the lead author is Carlos Melo-Carneiro from the Instituto de Física ...

Astronomers have discovered a record-breaking ultra-massive black hole, weighing 36 billion solar masses, at the heart of the Cosmic Horseshoe gravitational lensing system, challenging our ...

Quantum mechanics is used to propose that black hole singularities could be the start of a new phase, rather than a point of destruction.
