The earliest and most distant supermassive black hole discovered thus far by JWST is CEERS 1019, which existed just 570 ...

The scientists who precisely measure the position of Earth are in a bit of trouble. Their measurements are essential for the ...

A new paper claims astronomers discovered an ultramassive black hole heavier than any other black hole we've ever measured.

Black holes can be petite, with masses only about 10 times that of our sun -- or monstrous, boasting the equivalent in mass up to 10 billion suns. Do black holes also come in size medium? NASA's ...

Could Mysterious Black Hole Burps Rewrite Physics?

Crucially, this bounce occurs entirely within the framework of general relativity, which applies on large scales such as ...

In a recently published paper in Physical Review Letters, scientists propose a comprehensive theoretical framework indicating ...

Black holes are invisible, yet they are among the brightest things in the universe. If a star wanders too close to a black ...

A mind-bending hypothesis is gaining traction among scientists: The universe may be teeming with microscopic black holes the size of an atom, but with the mass of a city-sized asteroid. Created ...
