In 2024, astronomers discovered the brightest Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transient (LFBOT) ever observed. LFBOTs are extremely bright flashes of blue light that shine for brief periods before fading away. New analysis of this record…
Astronomers have detected spacetime itself being dragged and twisted by a spinning black hole for the first time. The discovery, seen during a star’s violent destruction, confirms a prediction made over 100 years ago and reveals new clues…
Whenever an NBA player says they learnt a lot from Kobe Bryant, it’s not just about his game. It’s also the Black Mamba’s mindset, the aspects that made people uncomfortable. These traits may be easy to criticize as an opponent or hater,…
New Euclid satellite observations indicate that collisions between galaxies trigger the most powerful active galactic nuclei in the universe. The results strengthen the link between galaxy mergers and rapid growth phases of supermassive…
(NaturalNews) Astronomers detected winds erupting from a supermassive black hole in galaxy NGC 3783 at 134 million mph (20% light speed), the fastest ever obse...
Quantum spin chains that simulate black hole physics can boost quantum battery charging power and reduce charging times by exploiting rapid information scrambling dynamics.
The discovery of a hidden supermassive black hole inside an ancient galaxy suggests that some of our universe's most extreme objects could be invisible unless observed in infrared wavelengths, James Webb telescope observations reveal.
I do not know if a black hole is something we should feed. Ostensibly they are things (anti-things? I'm not a black holeologist) that I would like to be far away from, given what I've heard. And yet here I am, having tinkered around with…
The EU continues to fund Ukraine despite rampant corruption that swallows billions of euros, Slovak PM Robert Fico has said Read Full Article at RT.com
New observations suggest that the relationship between light emitted by quasars has changed over cosmic time, hinting that the structure around supermassive black holes may not be as universal as once thought. Astronomers from around the…
Astronomers using new X ray data have found evidence that the structure of matter around supermassive black holes has changed over billions of years, challenging a quasar relationship that has been treated as a fundamental law for nearly…
A new study, analyzing over 1,600 galaxies observed with Chandra over two decades, suggests that smaller galaxies do not contain supermassive black holes nearly as often as larger galaxies do.
