In 2023, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) in the US detected something strange happening in space - the collision of two massive black holes. One black hole was around ...

An international team of physicists discovered the largest-ever merger of 2 black holes through a phenomenon known as gravitational waves.

As NASA reports, two astronomers working with raw Webb data the space agency periodically makes available to researchers, ...

The largest black hole collision ever recorded has scientists' jaws on the floor — and scratching their heads.

Astrophysicists have analyzed two merging black holes; the team's best models suggest that at least one, if not both, of the ...

A gravitational wave has revealed the biggest black-hole merger ever recorded—so massive and extreme, it defies current astrophysical models. The clash formed a 225-solar-mass monster, possibly made ...

The bold question-askers at What If imagine the cosmic consequences of a collision between a black hole and a white hole.

Very massive stars are cosmic "rock stars" that live fast, die young and leave black holes in their place. During this transformation, they may vomit out more stellar material than we knew.

But you might be surprised to learn that making these measurements – using the science of geodesy – depends on tracking the locations of black holes in distant galaxies. The problem is, the scientists ...

A new hypothesis called the “quantum memory matrix” could solve long-standing physics questions, including the Black Hole Information Paradox and dark matter.

A new generation of black hole research is unfolding thanks to artificial intelligence, massive simulations, and cutting-edge computing. Scientists have used a powerful neural network trained with ...
