Going beyond that horizon towards a new understanding of space, time and black holes is the principal goal of physicist Carlo Rovelli's wonderful new book White Holes.

The prospect of actually resolving the event horizon of black holes feels like the stuff of science fiction, yet it is a reality. Already, the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has resolved the ...

Black holes form from the death of stars - but what forms around them might be even stranger. Swirling disks of gas, magnetic fields, and plasma jets define their surroundings, creating some of ...

These are rare occurrences—scientists estimate that the giant black hole at the center of our Milky Way galaxy gobbles a star ...

A new generation of black hole research is unfolding thanks to artificial intelligence, massive simulations, and cutting-edge computing. Scientists have used a powerful neural network trained with ...

The Event Horizon Explorer would build on the work of the Event Horizon Telescope, which famously visualized a black hole in 2019.

A new image from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) for the first time showed in polarized light a ring of magnetic fields surrounding the Sagittarius A* black hole.
