In any other year, the supermassive black hole mentioned above would probably scoop the award for most striking outburst, but not in 2025. This year, that accolade goes to a flare designated ...

In a patch of sky about 1. 2 billion light-years from Earth, astronomers have found a cosmic rarity: three galaxies caught in ...

The highest energy neutrino ever detected from space may finally have an origin story. Mathematical analyses suggest that the ghost particle could’ve come from a theoretical object known as a ...

A UK-based research project, TomoGrav, will produce the first 3D movies of black holes, mapping plasma flows and gravity in real time using advanced AI and global telescope networks.

A supermassive black hole that’s 10 million times the mass of the Sun is hurtling through space, leaving a trail of gas ...
