A new generation of black hole research is unfolding thanks to artificial intelligence, massive simulations, and cutting-edge computing. Scientists have used a powerful neural network trained with ...

The Hubble Space Telescope has found evidence of a "wandering" black hole about 5000 light years away in the Milky Way galaxy ...

New gravitational wave findings from the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration report the discovery of the largest black hole merger ...

The event is the most massive black hole merger ever recorded by gravitational wave detectors and has forced physicists to ...

Scientists have detected the collision of two massive black holes merging beyond the Milky Way. The two black holes, each ...

In summer, we face toward the Milky Way's hub in the Teapot constellation, home to the galaxy's supermassive black hole.

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 ...

This colossal collision, which occurred about 10 billion light-years from Earth, was detected in November 2023 by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) detectors located in ...

Astronomers have studied the globular cluster 47 Tucanae extensively, but still have many questions. It may have an ...

Scientists believe the Milky Way contains up to 400 billion stars and at least as many planets. The largest galaxy known, IC 1101, has more than 100 trillion stars. Step outside on a clear night and ...

Sagittarius A*, the super massive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy, has long been the subject of many astrophysical studies. (CREDIT: Tranding art/Shutterstock) ...
