New observations have discovered that the black hole in M87, the first black hole ever imaged, is actually spinning.
Astronomers have spotted two huge jets fired off by the 'monster' black hole M87 wobbling on an 11-year cycle, proving for ...
The supermassive black hole M87*, which rose to fame in 2019 when it became the first void to be imaged and revealed a fuzzy ...
A NEW study has suggested that the nearest black hole to Earth could be 10 times closer than previously thought. The study was published in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical ...
OK, that was a little click-baity, but then again, so was the announcement this week that a scientist had confirmed Hawking radiation with a lab-grown black hole. It sure got our attention, at least.
Black holes are some of the most powerful and mysterious objects in the known universe - and there could be one much closer to Earth than previously thought. A study has found possible evidence of ...
Sep. 12, 2023 — At the center of every galaxy is a supermassive black hole. Beyond a certain size, these become active, emitting huge amounts of radiation, and are then called quasars.
A new article hints at the existence of several black holes in the Hyades cluster -- the closest open cluster to our solar system -- which would make them the closest black holes to Earth ever ...
Scientists used gravitational-wave data to detect the merger of two smaller black holes and the formation of a larger one. The larger black hole is still smaller than a supermassive black hole ...
The researchers made the discovery while conducting multi-wavelength observational studies of an outburst event of the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1820+070, using Insight-HXMT, China's first X ...
This makes them the closest black holes to the sun, much closer than the previous candidate (namely the black hole Gaia BH1, which is 480 parsecs from the sun).
