Supermassive black holes appear early in the universe, too big to match growth models. New simulations suggest even "light seed” black holes could bulk up rapidly through frenzied feeding bursts ...

Hubble catches a spiral galaxy mid-flight, shedding glowing gas as it battles the harsh environment of a nearby galaxy ...

However, there's another point in fermionic dark matter's favor. The Gaia spacecraft's map of the Milky Way – the most ...

The Event Horizon Telescope captured the first image of the Milky Way galaxy's supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* — our ...

Confirming a pulsar star would enable unprecedented tests of General Relativity. Such a discovery would revolutionize physics ...

Supermassive black holes can be very bright if they are actively eating, usually a brightness that stays there for a very ...

Last year, astronomers were fascinated by a runaway asteroid passing through our Solar System from somewhere far beyond. It was moving at around 68 kilometres per second, just over double Earth&rsquo ...

A supermassive black hole is on track to produce the longest recorded emission of energy left over from a shredded star.

Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have uncovered an unprecedented richness of small gas-phase ...

The discovery comes from observations of a galaxy called IRAS 07251–0248, classified as an ultra-luminous infrared galaxy. These galaxies shine intensely in infrared light because their central ...

Astronomers propose that an ultra-dense clump of exotic dark matter could be masquerading as the powerful object thought to ...

This summary covers significant events in science and economy, including a black hole's unusual behavior, a new AI method for identifying dinosaur footprints, Gemini's layoffs and strategic changes, ...
