An international team of researchers used multi-wavelength observations of active galactic nuclei to study how black holes ...

Despite the bounce and subsequent expansion, nothing can leave the event horizon, so it expands into a new region of ...

Once we have established the existence of an event horizon, however, we can start to think about what it would be like to approach a black hole. Suppose you had three spaceships located in deep ...

Star formation, perhaps strangely, stops more quickly in galaxies with smaller — in a manner of speaking — black holes at the center. The new Event Horizon Telescope — powered by nine of the ...

Christopher Nolan's 2014 sci-fi movie gets analyzed by a real astrophysicist, who sings the movie's praises despite ...

Instead, through complex interactions between the black hole event horizon and the quantum fields of space-time, they can emit a slow-but-steady stream of radiation, now known as Hawking radiation.

Our conception of time, black holes, and dark energy may be on the verge of a radical transformation thanks to an innovative ...

There are a few things in Ash where the thought was, “Well, people are going to want to know it’s my movie, that it’s still ...

The black hole is 500 million trillion kilometers away from the Earth and was photographed by a network of eight telescopes across the world, coordinated by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) project.

This theory posits that our universe exists within a colossal black hole, bounded by an event horizon beyond which nothing, not even light, can escape. “It is still not clear what causes this to ...

They proposed a bold idea: the edge of a black hole, known as the event horizon, could also be the universe’s boundary. This concept, though controversial then, suggested that the universe might exist ...
