It is unfortunate that some of the characters parading themselves as spokespersons are not trained, or poorly trained

"We discovered we had something big."

Researchers in China have uncovered a low-mass black hole within the elusive mass-gap, defying previous scientific consensus. By combining radial velocity and astrometry, they identified this black hole in a wide binary system, challenging…

This is the closest pair detected in the local universe using multiwavelength (visible and X-ray light) observations.

The current generation of gravitational wave detectors could "hear" supernovas over 65 million light-years away, helping scientists determine if a dying star creates a black hole or a neutron star.

The Labour leader may not have the charisma, or the punchlines, but he has a secret weapon – sincerity

Chinese researchers have discovered a promising mass-gap black hole using radial velocity and astrometry methods. The study was published online in Nature Astronomy on Sept. 10, and was conducted by a team led by Dr. Wang Song, an…
