Astronomers have discovered the most distant and earliest blazar, an erupting supermassive black hole aiming its plasma jets ...

Astronomers have identified IRAS 18293-0941 as a leading candidate for a rare 'microblazar', a stellar-mass black hole system ...

Could black holes have planets? New research says yes, they could. New simulations suggest massive planets could form in the ...

New research suggests that black holes far from galaxy centers could preserve clues about their galaxies’ past.

This is the first confirmed case of a star that survived an encounter with a supermassive black hole and came back for more. This discovery upends conventional wisdom about such tidal disruption ...

Powerful jets from supermassive black holes can disturb star-forming gas far beyond a galaxy’s visible edge, leaving a glowing trail hundreds of thousands of light-years long. By keeping this gas hot ...

Every black hole hides a question at its center. Einstein's theory predicts that whatever falls in is crushed into a ...

Astronomers saw past the blinding light of a quasar, only to find a supermassive black hole that's much smaller than theoretical predictions. Reading time 2 minutes All galaxies have a supermassive ...
