For obvious reasons, we do not know what the inside of a black hole looks like. But thanks to theoretical physics, we can ask ...

The Event Horizon Telescope only recently gave us the first images of the environment immediately surrounding a black hole.

Astronomers spotted the largest flare ever released from a supermassive black hole as it snacked on a giant star.

The oldest confirmed black hole formed when the universe was a mere infant, within 500 million years of the Big Bang, researchers report. The James Webb Space Telescope, or JWST, saw the enormous ...

Analysis suggests that the most luminous burst of light ever detected from a black hole — a fireworks show that was, at its peak, more than 10 trillion times brighter than the Sun — flared up as the ...

A giant star that is still being consumed by a supermassive black hole may have caused the largest flare of its kind ever seen, astronomers say.

For the first time, astronomers have managed to capture a radio image showing two black holes orbiting each other. The observation confirmed the existence of black hole pairs. In the past, astronomers ...

Astronomers at Goethe University Frankfurt have made a breakthrough discovery regarding the supermassive black hole M87*. Their findings, published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, challenge ...

Some of the mysterious pinpricks of light at the dawn of the Universe could be a type of object we've never seen before. According to a new analysis of a "little red dot" (LRD) nicknamed The Cliff, ...
