The EHT captured a surprising polarization reversal around M87*, pointing to rapidly changing magnetic fields near the black ...
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is the most advanced telescope ever constructed, designed for operation in deep space, approximately 1.5 million miles from Earth. The orbital observatory ...
New observations of M87*, the first black hole ever imaged, revealed that the supermassive blackhole has experienced several magnetic flips in the last decade. Reading time 3 minutes In 2019, ...
"The key result is that while many alternatives look very similar to the 'standard' black hole at today's image quality, the ...
For decades, black holes have been the ultimate cosmic cliffhanger: regions of space where gravity wins so completely that ...
Falling into a black hole means facing extreme stretching, known as spaghettification, due to immense tidal forces. While ...
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 ...
Gazing up at the stars at night, it’s easy to imagine that space goes on forever. But cosmologists know that the universe actually has limits. First, their best models indicate that space and time had ...
Falling into a black hole may sound like something from a science fiction movie, but it is a very real phenomenon studied by ...
Yet according to physics, information is never destroyed. In principle, a burned book is just as readable as the original—if ...
To solve the mysteries of black holes, a human should just venture into one. However, there is a rather complicated catch: A human can do this only if the respective black hole is supermassive and ...
