The Chandra X-ray Observatory has snapped stunning photos of the invisible universe for 25 years. NASA may end the mission ...
Astronomers have discovered powerful "twisted" magnetic fields spiraling around the black hole that sits at the center of the Milky Way, the European Southern Observatory said Wednesday.
Facing budget cuts, NASA is slicing funding for a key telescope, leaving the project and the future of X-ray astronomy adrift ...
The supermassive black hole at the heart of our galaxy has a side you've never seen before. A new image shows powerful magnetic fields swirling around Earth's hometown black hole called ...
In other words, near a black hole, nothing stands still. Nothing at all. Clearly, black holes can't be dragged down to Earth, so these effects can be studied in the lab — but a research team ...
Notably, they detected a phenomenon akin to the "ringdown" of black holes, a phenomenon by which a newly merged black hole vibrates on its axis. The experiment, led by Patrik Svancara and his ...
The international collaboration is working to capture the most detailed black hole images ever obtained by creating a virtual Earth-sized telescope. The Atacama Large Millimeter Array (Alma ...
Apr. 5, 2024 — A team of researchers has shown that molecules can be as formidable at scrambling quantum information as black holes by combining mathematical tools from black hole physics and ...
The more mass an object has, the stronger its gravitational pull. If Earth was (hypothetically) crushed into a black hole, it would be under an inch across. So you might wonder, how can we see a ...
