Discoveries keep pouring out of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Researchers observed an unusual cluster, which they ...

A U.S. gravitational wave detector spotted a collision between fast-spinning “forbidden” black holes that challenge physics ...

“It’s the most massive [merger] so far,” says Mark Hannam, a physicist at Cardiff University, UK, and part of the LVK ...

Gravitational waves spotted by LIGO reveal two black holes, 140 and 100 times the mass of the sun, merged to become a 225 solar mass behemoth.

Unlike formed supermassive black holes surrounded by bright accretion disks, these pre-black hole objects would be relatively metal-free, representing truly primordial conditions.

Using the XMM-Newton telescope, astronomers have witnessed high-speed "burps" erupting from a distant overfeeding supermassive black hole.

Astronomers have witnessed a distant supermassive black hole devouring its surrounding matter so rapidly that it is "burping" out excess mass at nearly a third of the speed of light.

Astronomers have discovered a supermassive black hole that's shooting a giant energy beam directly at Earth. The cosmic juggernaut, which is about as massive as 700 million suns, is taking aim at ...

Researchers say there are far more supermassive black holes out there than we previously suspected, and they're starting to find them.

The monster black hole lurking at the center of galaxy M87 is an absolute beast. It is one of the largest in our vicinity and was the ideal first target for the Event Horizon Telescope. Scientists ...

Supermassive Black Hole’s Storm Throws Gas "Bullets" At 30 Percent Of The Speed Of Light The center of a quasar is experiencing a real rough time!

A supermassive black hole lurking at the heart of a relatively close galaxy is firing off a rapid-fire slew of ultrafast gas "bullets" into the surrounding galaxy.
