This galaxy's central black hole appears to be a "messy eater" as its interstellar scraps are strewn into space.

Black holes may not be as life-destroying as we thought. A surprising study reveals that the powerful radiation from active ...

"Without a climate-regulating feedback mechanism, life may die out fast." Earth, in real life, is not close enough to its resident black hole, Sagittarius A, to feel its effects, even in AGN-mode. But ...

Astronomers have discovered strong evidence of a supermassive black hole in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy of ...

New research that used imaging from the James Webb Space Telescope gives credence to a scientific theory that says the Milky ...

New research reveals that high-energy radiation from active galactic nuclei could foster life on distant planets by ...

New research challenges our understanding of black holes, proposing they may not be cosmic dead ends after all.

A new discovery using the James Webb Telescope has implied we may live in a black hole. The telescope, launched by NASA three ...

The composite image of NGC 1275, or Perseus A, reveals its dynamic structure by blending optical, radio, and X-ray data. Cygnus X-1, about 10,000 light-years away, is a powerful black hole pulling ...

Rotating black holes are the most powerful phenomenon in the known universe. Their powerful gravity radically alters the curvature of spacetime around them, leading to relativistic effects like ...

Black hole singularities should not exist, according to theories of quantum mechanics. New tweaks to Einstein's equations of general relativity could finally do away with them, and explain what truly ...

Earth, in real life, is not close enough to its resident black hole, Sagittarius A, to feel its effects, even in AGN-mode. But the researchers wanted to see what could happen if Earth were much ...
