In 1974, astronomers Bruce Balick and Robert L. Brown discovered a powerful radio source at the center of the Milky Way galaxy. The source, Sagittarius A*, was subsequently revealed to be a supermassive black hole (SMBH) with a mass of…
Scientists used the James Webb Space Telescope to capture views of the spiral galaxy NGC 4258. They spotted the supermassive black hole at the galaxy's center actively eating cosmic material.
The impossibility of the kugelblitz: quantum effects forbid the formation of black holes from high concentrations of intense light. Researchers have concluded that kugelblitze, black...
Hard-up defence chiefs have sent a letter to suppliers giving them 36 hours to help with money-saving initiatives amid a race to cut costs due to a a £16.9billion 'black hole' in defence finances.
By examining a distant supermassive black hole, astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have found a shocking link between jets and dust around these cosmic titans.
Primordial black holes are thought to have formed early in the evolution of the universe. None have been discovered yet but if they do exist and they may be plentiful, drifting almost invisibly through the cosmos, then they might account…

WORKING pensioners will escape being clobbered by a National Insurance tax grab at the Budget to help fill a £22billion black hole, Rachel Reeves says.
WORKING pensioners will escape being clobbered by a National Insurance tax grab at the Budget to help fill a £22billion black hole, Rachel Reeves says.
The Chancellor said she was seeking the 'right balance' on taxes at her Budget on 30 October, having previously warned of 'difficult decisions' to come.
A team of international scientists led by researchers at Newcastle University, have used the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to reveal a hidden veil of dust in a galaxy 70 million light years away.
Chancellor Rachel Reeves has been urged to consider a radical driving tax on electric vehicles (EVs) as a £9bn black hole looms from the loss of fuel duty.
