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

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 ...

Using observations from 2017 and 2018, the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) Collaboration has advanced our understanding of the ...

Strange x-ray pulses hint at a surprisingly long-lived white dwarf orbiting precariously close to a supermassive black hole ...

Black hole quantum effects are usually thought to be too small to have any observable signatures. This is indeed the case for ...

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 ...

"If our eyes were able to detect X-rays, the sky would be full of dots. And every single one of those dots would be an ...

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 ...

The size and spin of black holes can reveal how and where they were born, and gravitational waves offer a way to decode this ...

For half a century, astrophysicists have been trying to solve the Black Hole Information Paradox—first explained by Stephen Hawking in 1976—which posits that black holes destroy information. That ...

Infrared observations help astronomers uncover hundreds of obscured supermassive black holes, reshaping cosmic understanding.

Sagittarius A* is the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way. As supermassive black holes go, it is fairly ...
