Black hole light echoes are an extreme form of gravitational lensing. To measure the masses and spins of black holes, ...

Major Step Out Drilling: The RPM Zone discovery is located 25 km south of historic drilling at Atlantic Lake and 10 km south ...

How astronomers used gravitational lensing, a space-time trick predicted by Einstein, to detect a black hole measuring 30 ...

There are monstrous objects at the heart of every large galaxy — black holes that are millions or even billions of times more ...

Astrophysicists have developed a method to detect light echoes from black holes, potentially revolutionizing the measurement ...

A fresh analysis of decades-old X-ray black hole jet data has revealed bright, lumpy features with mysterious speed changes.

The DESI survey reveals that active black holes in small galaxies are common. The findings may help reveal how the two cosmic bodies evolve together.

Do you remember the famous images of the supermassive black holes in the centre of the galaxy M87 and our own galaxy the ...

Gas swirling around black holes forms disks that are among the most effective energy converters in the universe, emitting ...

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

Due to gravitational lensing, the photons from a single flash of light near a black hole follow winding paths. Some follow the trajectory of the blue line, where they take a direct path to the ...

Black holes are fascinating objects. They're unimaginably dense: If Earth was (hypothetically) crushed into a black hole, it ...
