A new generation of black hole research is unfolding thanks to artificial intelligence, massive simulations, and cutting-edge ...
Astronomers studying the Milky Way's supermassive black hole have found "compelling evidence" that could finally help explain its mysterious past. Located 26,000 light-years away in the center of ...
The study focused on two black holes — our galaxy's Sgr A* and M87*, located 55 million light-years away. Both were previously imaged by the global EHT project.
An artist’s illustration depicts the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy, known as Sagittarius A*. It’s surrounded by a swirling accretion disk of hot gas and dust.
The EHT managed to image the black hole in the center of our Milky Way galaxy, Sagittarius A*, as well as the black hole in the center of the elliptical galaxy M87, M87* — marking the first two ...
Seven strangely-behaving stars in the Milky Way's Omega Centauri cluster may be under the influence of an extremely rare type of black hole, new research suggests. When you purchase through links ...
We know black hole mergers occur because we can detect the resulting gravitational waves. But when trying to piece together ...
