Fast-moving stars imply that there's an intermediate-mass black hole there.

Most known black holes are either extremely massive, like the supermassive black holes that lie at the cores of large galaxies, or relatively lightweight, with a mass of under 100 times that of the Sun. Intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs…

What happens when you look inside a stellar fossil? You find a black hole missing link.

"Astronomers have tried to find one of these black holes for over 20 years, and now we have finally succeeded," researcher Holger Baumgardt said.

The discovery is the best candidate for a class of black holes astronomers have long believed to exist but have never found - intermediate-mass black holes formed in early stages of galaxy evolution.

The Hubble Telescope has discovered a black hole "frozen in time" that's also the closest massive black hole to Earth.

The black hole has been observed in the star cluster called Omega Centauri – a collection of around 10 million stars.

A report from Nature shows that astronomers may have found a medium-sized black hole, a kind they've long looked for.

Researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy and the University of Utah have discovered the closest example of a massive black hole ever found.

Newly identified fast-moving stars in the star cluster Omega Centauri provide solid evidence for a central black hole in the cluster. With at least 8,200 solar masses, it is the best candidate for a class of black holes astronomers have…

Scientists from Washington University in St. Louis have launched a balloon-borne telescope to unlock the secrets of astrophysical black holes and neutron stars, some of the most extreme objects in the universe.

Webb’s image of RX J1131-1231 uses gravitational lensing to explore the quasar’s black hole and dark matter, revealing details about its growth and the universe’s...

New theoretical research finds that it's impossible to form a black hole with the energy of light particles alone, poking a hole in Einstein's theory of general relativity.
