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

The strange behavior of hypervelocity stars suggests a nearby dwarf galaxy must contain a supermassive black hole. If so, a ...

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

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 ...

Image of the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*). from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration "has uncovered strong and organised magnetic fields spiralling from its edge," ...

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

Located approximately 27,000 light-years (one light year equals approximately nine trillion kilometres) from Earth — relatively close when it comes to galactic black holes — Sag A* has an estimated ...

The Milky Way can be seen as something of a bully, having devoured many smaller galaxies to achieve its vast mass, and ...

Astronomers have found a massive radio jet, stretching across at least 200,000 light-years in the distant universe. The ...

Scientists have created the first-ever 3D maps of star-forming molecular clouds near the Milky Way's supermassive black hole, ...

While radio jets are relatively common in the nearby Universe, they have been elusive in the early Universe. This is partly ...

Surprisingly, the black hole driving this colossal jet is modest by quasar standards, weighing 450 million times the mass of ...
