Astronomers have uncovered what they say just might be the heaviest black hole we've ever seen. The "ultramassive" black hole is located at the center … The post Scientists claim they just discovered ...

Stellar-mass black holes typically form after a star goes supernova and collapses. However, the discovery of the first-ever ...

In fact, this is the first dormant black hole we’ve discovered outside of our galaxy. The discovery was only possible thanks to six years of observations captured by the European Southern ...

An elusive type of black hole has been discovered in a neighboring galaxy for the first time, according to a new study based on observations from the European Southern Observatory’s (ESO’s ...

Gravitational waves stretch and squeeze the fabric of space and time itself. When space/time is squeezed, pulsar pulses ...

The giant black hole has a mass of 30 billion suns and sits at the center of a galaxy located hundreds of millions of light-years from Earth. Astronomers call the cosmic monster an ultramassive ...

In short: Astronomers discovered the first "black hole triple system", some 7,800 light-years from Earth. The system, called V404 Cygni, was thought to be a black hole and a companion star, but a ...

Physicists at MIT and Caltech have discovered the first “black hole triple,” a formation more than 8,000 light years from Earth that experts say expands the current understanding of how black ...

The first "black hole triple" system, consisting of a black hole hungrily feeding on a companion star orbited by a more distant star, hints at a gentle formation process without supernova explosions.

For the first time, physicists have observed a “black hole triple” in space.This new system is about 8,000 light years away from Earth and is made up of a central black hole that is in the act ...

Stellar-mass black holes typically form after a star goes supernova and collapses. However, the discovery of the first-ever triple black hole system, V404 Cygni, complicates that picture.

 Researchers have discovered something groundbreaking in the world of astrophysics—an incredible system where not one, but a trio of black holes exist together The Complexity of V404 Cygni ...
