One researcher’s analysis of Webb Space Telescope images could indicate that we’re all stuck in a black hole, according to ...

This supports a theory suggesting that outbursts launched by black holes can cause the hot gas around them to cool and form relatively fine filaments of still-warm gas. The warm gas falls toward ...

Another study that year showed that a cool gas halo surrounds Sagittarius A*, which gives unprecedented insight into what the environment around a black hole looks like. So far, astronomers have ...

Black holes are points in space that are so dense they create deep gravity sinks. Beyond a certain region, not even light can escape the powerful tug of a black hole's gravity. And anything that ...

Rotating black holes are the most powerful phenomenon in the known universe. Their powerful gravity radically alters the curvature of spacetime around them, leading to relativistic effects like time ...

There’s a pretty hot party raging in the black hole at the center of our galaxy. Using new observations from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), a team of astrophysicists found that the ...

"The higher the spin, the more energy the black hole can release." Black holes may leak more energy to their surroundings than previously suspected — and the faster these voids spin, the more ...

A new study of super-fast-moving stars suggests that they were accelerated by a monster black hole that's been lurking unseen ...

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has recorded never-before-seen images of the hot disc swirling around the supermassive black hole at the centre of our galaxy. It found the disc constantly ...
