A collision observed between two black holes, each more massive than a hundred suns, is the largest merger of its kind ever ...

Black holes are places where gravity is so powerful that nothing — not even light — can escape. Rather than being empty, black holes are chock full of matter that gets squeezed into a teensy space.

Yale astronomer Pieter van Dokkum and a team of researchers have discovered an object in space they call the "Infinity" ...

The massive black hole has been dubbed GW231123. Its unusual size and behavior is challenging scientists' understanding of ...

Two colossal black holes among the most massive ever seen collided in deep space, creating gravitational waves that rippled ...

To compare, nuclear fusion converts about 0.7% of mass into energy. The condition around a black hole converts 10% of mass into energy. That's a big difference!

A new hypothesis called the “quantum memory matrix” could solve long-standing physics questions, including the Black Hole Information Paradox and dark matter.

But black holes are real things in the real Universe; with enough determination, we could reach out and dip a toe into an event horizon. If we can solve the information paradox, ...

Stuff falls into black holes, along with their information. From the point of view of an external observer (i.e., us watching safely from a distance), ...

5 fast facts about black holes. The closest black hole, Gaia BH1, is about 1,500 light-years away. The biggest known black hole is TON 618. It's 66 billion times more massive than the sun.
