But in the past two decades, new types of black holes have been seen and astronomers are beginning to understand how they ...

The image of supermassive black hole Sagittarius A * was created using data from the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration.

We measure the extremely long distances between things in space by light years. A light year is the distance that light travels in one Earth year. Light travels at about 300,000 kilometres per second.

Imagine if a species grew up on a planet that had a black hole moon the mass of the moon. They’d have tides, they’d have an unobstructed view of the night sky, and they’d have no clue about this ...

With the recent first light milestone for the Vera Rubin Observatory, it's only a matter of time before one of astronomy's most long-awaited surveys begins. The Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) ...

New research is shedding light on what researchers call "lite" intermediate-mass black holes, which are smaller, but still ...

Caltech’s Katie Bouman explains how the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration captured the first imager of the Sagittarius A* Supermassive black hole at the core of the Milky Way galaxy - Milky Way vs ...

A new generation of black hole research is unfolding thanks to artificial intelligence, massive simulations, and cutting-edge computing. Scientists have used a powerful neural network trained with ...

A distant supermassive black hole has stunned astronomers by expelling matter at speeds nearing a third of light velocity after consuming material at an extreme rate. Designated PG1211+143, this ...

The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) stunned the world in 2019 with the first image of a black hole, found in the M87 galaxy. Then in 2022, it released a new image of Sagittarius A*, our galaxy's ...
