Observations by a system of radio telescopes have offered the first visual evidence for the existence of black hole pairs.

For the first time, astronomers have managed to capture a radio image showing two black holes orbiting each other. The ...

Deep in the core of most galaxies, hidden by spinning clouds of gas and dust, black holes spin like cosmic engines. These ...

The oldest confirmed black hole formed when the universe was a mere infant, within 500 million years of the Big Bang, researchers report. The James Webb Space Telescope, or JWST, saw the enormous ...

SXS—Simulating eXtreme Spacetimes—is an ongoing scientific collaboration that has been generating simulations of dramatic ...

Many LRDs exhibit a strong Balmer break, at an epoch starting just 600 million years after the Big Bang, 13.8 billion years ...

For 50 years, astronomers have been searching for evidence of winds emanating from the black hole Sagittarius A*. Now, they ...

Astronomers may have uncovered the origins of the mysterious “little red dots,” some of the strangest galaxies seen in the early universe. These tiny but brilliant objects, discovered by the James ...

A beam of particles speeding away from the vicinity of a monstrous black hole has been found to be severely kinked, providing compelling evidence that the black hole is actually part of the most ...

Physicists have detected the biggest ever merger of colliding black holes. The discovery has major implications for researchers’ understanding of how such bodies grow in the Universe. “It’s super ...

Efforts to understand the universe could get a boost from an AI developed by Google DeepMind. The algorithm, which can reduce unwanted noise by up to 100 times, could allow the Laser Interferometer ...
