In 2023, scientists detected the gravitational waves from a black hole collision that seemed impossible. New research finally ...

The historic first image of the Messier 87 (M87) supermassive black hole, captured using the Event Horizon Telescope, has ...

"The key result is that while many alternatives look very similar to the 'standard' black hole at today's image quality, the ...

The EHT captured a surprising polarization reversal around M87*, pointing to rapidly changing magnetic fields near the black ...

Here is what you will learn when you read this story: Little red dots (LRDs) observed by the James Webb Space Telescope were initially thought to be galaxies, but something was amiss. Researchers who ...

When scientists discovered an enormous black hole thousands of light-years from where it ought to be in space, they knew they had a cosmic oddity on their hands. NASA's Hubble Space Telescope showed a ...

The following is an extract from our Lost in Space-Time newsletter. Each month, we hand over the keyboard to a physicist or mathematician to tell you about fascinating ideas from their corner of the ...

The images, captured with the Event Horizon Telescope, show the magnetic field of the supermassive black hole M87* completely reversing. EHT Collaboration Observations of a supermassive black hole ...

A supermassive black hole lurking at the center of M87, a supergiant galaxy 55 million light-years from Earth, is acting far more strangely than anticipated. Since 2017, astronomers from the Event ...
