Using the XMM-Newton telescope, astronomers have witnessed high-speed "burps" erupting from a distant overfeeding ...

Very massive stars are cosmic "rock stars" that live fast, die young and leave black holes in their place. During this ...

Astronomers at the University of Hawaii uncovered black hole events so packed with energy, they were the biggest explosions ...

A team of scientists has developed a new model to study ‘very massive stars’ and their impact on the formation of black holes ...

A new generation of black hole research is unfolding thanks to artificial intelligence, massive simulations, and cutting-edge ...

Astronomers searching for massive black holes shredding stars found one in an unusual place -- 2,600 light years from the core of a galaxy. The roque black hole may be from an earlier merger with ...

A new census reveals that 35% of supermassive black holes are hidden behind dust, disrupting major galactic models.

Caltech simulations reveal what happens when black holes collide with neutron stars—violent cracking, intense shock waves, ...

A distant supermassive black hole, PG1211+143, is consuming surrounding matter so rapidly it's expelling excess mass at nearly a third of light speed.

A team of scientists is proposing a bold alternative to the Big Bang theory, suggesting that our universe may have instead formed inside a colossal black hole.
