A new generation of black hole research is unfolding thanks to artificial intelligence, massive simulations, and cutting-edge ...

Using the XMM-Newton telescope, astronomers have witnessed high-speed "burps" erupting from a distant overfeeding ...

Supermassive black holes usually lurk unseen, but when an unlucky star drifts too close they ignite titanic outbursts ...

Astronomers at the University of Hawaii uncovered black hole events so packed with energy, they were the biggest explosions ...

"We would need to consider the possibility that the source was created (or trapped as a primordial black hole) by a highly advanced technological civilization," Harvard's Avi Loeb writes.

Caltech simulations reveal what happens when black holes collide with neutron stars—violent cracking, intense shock waves, ...
