Findings could imply that the Big Bang would no longer be an isolated event and suggest that every black hole in our universe could spawn its own “baby universe” Picture courtesy : X ...

New findings about intermediate-mass black holes could shed light on some of the universe’s more mysterious components. In a recently published paper, a group of scientists have found new evidence of ...

Could Mysterious Black Hole Burps Rewrite Physics?

Most galaxies around the size of the Milky Way or larger have a supermassive black hole skulking in their center. Each of these black holes can be millions or even billions of times more massive ...

Comparisons between black holes and the cosmology of our universe make some sense —after all, both contain singularities of a sort and horizons beyond which we can’t hope to glimpse.

RIVERSIDE, Calif. -- Supermassive black holes — with masses ranging from millions to billions of times that of our sun — sit at the centers of most large galaxies. Astronomers have observed ...

Three supermassive black holes are gobbling up stars 10 times the size of the sun. Shredding them is creating the biggest explosions since the dawn of the universe.

In 2022, they presented the image of the black hole at the center of our Milky Way, Sagittarius A*. However, the data behind the images still contained a wealth of hard-to-crack information.
