Astronomers used AI and high-throughput computing to analyse Event Horizon Telescope data on black holes. Sagittarius A* is spinning near top speed with its rotation axis pointing towards Earth ...

The black hole couldn’t handle all the material it had pulled in, so it expelled some of it in a powerful outflow. This outflow was moving at 27% the speed of light, or about 80,000 kilometers ...

A few, however, carry extreme energy: more than a million times what particle accelerators on Earth can produce. A new study suggests that those monsters are born in the churning magnetic fields of ...

Each jet was observed emerging from an actively feeding supermassive black hole, known as a quasar. The two black holes are located around 11.6 billion and 11.7 billion light-years away. The two ...

The cosmos has once again thrown humanity into a whirlwind of questions, and this time, the answers may be scarier than we imagined. In a jaw-dropping revelation, scientists studying data from NASA’s ...

Black holes are invisible, yet they are among the brightest things in the universe. If a star wanders too close to a black hole, it gets torn apart in a fireworks show called a tidal disruption ...

Aesop Rock, Black Hole Superette (Rhymesayers) Aesop Rock has been making what was once considered “experimental” hip hop for so long now that all that’s left from album to album is pure outcome, ...

Some striped wallpaper remains on the right. Wallpaper is gone from the seating area across from the check-in desk. The wall paneling has also been stripped away, revealing some of the inner framework ...

It’s the largest black hole jet we’ve discovered to date. What makes this particular jet so exciting for astronomers is not only its size. It’s also estimated to be 1.2 billion years old.

Three supermassive black holes are gobbling up stars 10 times the size of the sun. Shredding them is creating the biggest explosions since the dawn of the universe.

A team of astronomers led by Michael Janssen (Radboud University, The Netherlands) has trained a neural network with millions of synthetic black hole data sets. Based on the network and data from ...

In 2022, they presented the image of the black hole at the center of our Milky Way, Sagittarius A*. However, the data behind the images still contained a wealth of hard-to-crack information.
