Astronomers tracked a star in Andromeda as it dimmed and vanished without the usual fiery explosion, offering rare clues to ...
Recent observations suggest that 'runaway' black holes are tumbling through the cosmos. Building on decades of theory, the discovery adds a remarkable new chapter to the story of the universe.
A massive star in the nearby Andromeda galaxy has simply disappeared. Some astronomers believe that it's collapsed in on itself and formed a black hole.
A massive star 2.5 million light-years away simply vanished — and astronomers now know why. Instead of exploding in a supernova, it quietly collapsed into a black hole, shedding its outer layers in a ...
Scientists say an ultra-powerful neutrino once thought impossible may be explained by an exotic black hole model involving a so-called “dark charge.” ...
In 2023, a subatomic particle called a neutrino crashed into Earth with such a high amount of energy that it should have been ...
A “disappearing” star in the Andromeda galaxy is the closest and best candidate for a newborn black hole that astronomers have ever seen ...
When the researchers calculated the black hole's energy output, they were met with an additional surprise. It's about equal to the energy released by a gamma-ray burst (GRB). Since GRB are the ...
Astronomers propose that an ultra-dense clump of exotic dark matter could be masquerading as the powerful object thought to ...
Our Milky Way galaxy may not have a supermassive black hole at its center but rather an enormous clump of mysterious dark ...
The Taam ja’ is blue hole is still defined by what we don’t know. We can say it’s deeper than 1,390 feet, and the bottom hasn’t been found.
