Astronomers have found a supermassive black hole in the Large Magellanic Cloud. This black hole is 600,000 times the mass of ...

A decade ago, physicists using twin detectors in Washington State and Louisiana detected gravitational waves—subtle ripples ...

Fast-moving stars zooming through our galaxy might have been slingshotted from a black hole inside the neighbouring Large ...

Ancient quasars seen by the James Webb Space Telescope technically shouldn’t exist, but one rare type of dark matter could ...

Astronomers detect signs of a massive, invisible black hole in the Large Magellanic Cloud, which may collide with the Milky ...

Astronomers have used a continent-sized radio telescope to find the largest black hole jet ever observed in the early ...

Once the two galaxies are merged, the supermassive hole in the Large Magellanic Cloud – if black hole there is – will make its way to the galactic center, where it will eventually, after many more ...

"This discovery challenges the common belief that black holes formed in star clusters always have randomly distributed spins." ...

The black holes rip the stars apart and consume their stellar debris — becoming more massive, Northwestern explained. This increases their gravitational pull and draws them together as they orbit..

"Interestingly, the quasar powering this massive radio jet does not have an extreme black hole mass compared to other quasars ...

Supermassive black holes are seen as sources of wanton cosmic destruction, but there may be more to their powerful influence ...

The Hubble Space Telescope has imaged a "200,000 light-year-long trail of newborn stars" that may have been left behind by a ...
