Traditional black holes, as predicted by Albert Einstein's theory of General Relativity, contain what are known as singularities, i.e. points where the laws of physics break down. Identifying how ...

Scientists have unlocked the 3D structure of molecular clouds in the Milky Way’s center, using a groundbreaking X-ray technique. These cosmic clouds, vital for star formation, were illuminated by past ...

Image of the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*). from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration "has uncovered strong and organised magnetic fields spiralling from its edge," ...

The Largest 'Black Hole Jet' Discovered Is Estimated to Be Twice the Size of Our Milky Way We know black holes to be ...

"This discovery challenges the common belief that black holes formed in star clusters always have randomly distributed spins." ...

Once the two galaxies are merged, the supermassive hole in the Large Magellanic Cloud – if black hole there is – will make its way to the galactic center, where it will eventually, after many more ...

The elliptical galaxy NGC 4660 is one of a hundred galaxies imaged by Hubble that are members of the nearest large galaxy cluster to Earth, the Virgo Cluster. NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has ...

The black holes rip the stars apart and consume their stellar debris — becoming more massive, Northwestern explained. This increases their gravitational pull and draws them together as they orbit..
