Latest about Black holes
Weird physics at the edges of black holes may help resolve lingering 'Hubble trouble'
The expansion of the universe may not be accelerating at the edges of black holes. If this is the case at all event horizons, this may explain "Hubble tension," and the worst prediction in physics.
Missing Milky Way black holes are bad news for this dark matter theory
After 20 years watching stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud for hints of a phenomenon predicted by Einstein, scientists throw doubt on the connection between ancient black holes and dark matter.
Why is mystery object Cygnus X-3 so bright? Astronomers may now have the answer
The X-ray-emitting binary system Cygnus X-3 features a massive Wolf-Rayet star donating matter to a compact object, probably a black hole.
This impossibly massive black hole wasn't very hungry during the dawn of time
The James Webb Space Telescope saw a supermassive black hole that wasn't overfeeding when time began, deepening the mystery of how black hole grew so massive so quickly.
Supermassive black hole winds blowing at 36 million miles per hour can sculpt entire galaxies
Astronomers have measured supermassive black hole winds that existed when the universe was less than 3 billion years old, showing how these cosmic titans shape galaxies.
Magnetic vortices may help feed supermassive black holes. Here's how
A spinning magnetic wind blows from supermassive black holes, paving the way for more matter to fall into them, scientists say.
A massive black hole may be 'waking up' in a nearby galaxy
Astronomers have, for the first time, spotted a black hole in a nearby galaxy waking up from a deep slumber.
How 2 quasars at the dawn of time could be a Rosetta stone for the early universe
The two active supermassive black holes are the most distant pair of quasars ever seen and shed more light on how the universe transformed into what it is today.
