There's no denying that something massive lurks at the heart of the Milky Way galaxy, but a new study asks whether a ...

Once this effect kicks in, the black hole discharges rapidly and explodes. Crucially, the UMass team calculated that this ...

Black holes are powerful space objects that can pull in nearby stars. But how does this really happen? In this kid-friendly science explainer, learn how black holes stretch, heat and slowly “eat” ...

The James Webb telescope may have detected the universe's earliest and most distant known black hole at the heart of galaxy GHZ2, revealing how the first black holes grew just a few hundred million ...

Researchers have found what might be a little red dot transitioning into its final state, where x-rays burst through its gas cocoon. Others argue the object is nothing special ...
