"Little red dot" galaxies discovered by the James Webb Space Telescope in the early cosmos appear to be ruled by supermassive black holes that are 1,000 times too massive.

N ASA has released a stunning image of a black hole swallowing a star and causing a massive explosion. Although the cosmic event took place 600 million light-years ago, the burst of radiation has ...

Astronomers have discovered a "missing link": a tiny black hole lurking with a red giant star in a strange and difficult-to-explain binary system.

For a pre-supermassive black hole object at redshift 10 (when the universe was only about 500 million years old), more than 95% of the Lyman-alpha radiation could escape and potentially be detected.

A distant supermassive black hole has stunned astronomers by expelling matter at speeds nearing a third of light velocity after consuming material at an extreme rate. Designated PG1211+143, this ...

The newly discovered "blazar," which has a mass equal to 700 million suns, is the oldest of its kind ever seen and changes what we know about the early universe.

Scientists Found First Triple Black Hole System Typically, black holes to emit X-rays perpendicular to the galactic plane. But it’s extremely unusual to find them within the plane itself.

In Pablo’s Galaxy, researchers found its black hole ejecting cold, dark gas at speeds up to 620 miles (1,000 kilometers) per second, blowing it out of the galaxy’s gravitational reach.

According to NASA, supermassive black holes—often found at the heart of galaxies—are astronomical objects with a gravitational pull so strong that not even light can escape it that are so ...

For the first time, physicists have observed a “black hole triple” in space.This new system is about 8,000 light years away from Earth and is made up of a central black hole that is in the act ...
