Black holes are points in space that are so dense they create deep gravity sinks. Beyond a certain region, not even light can escape the powerful tug of a black hole's gravity. And anything that ...

We do know some things about these space enigmas, and many weird facts about black holes. Keep reading to learn more about these objects, and see if you already know some of these six weird facts ...

Black holes that have been obscured by clouds of dust still emit infrared light, enabling astronomers to spot them for the ...

There's a universe full of black holes out there, spinning merrily away—some fast, others more slowly. A recent survey of ...

Rather than relying on a cheek swab or a little blood, however, these cosmic DNA tests utilize tiny ripples in the fabric of spacetime called gravitational waves, first proposed by Albert Einstein 110 ...

The black hole information paradox has puzzled physicists for decades. New research shows how quantum connections in spacetime itself may resolve the paradox, and in the process leave behind a ...

As black holes slowly vanish through Hawking radiation, their information may be preserved in subtle space-time ripples, a new theory suggests. Nothing is supposed to escape a black hole's event ...
