For years, the James Webb Space Telescope has been spotting enormous black holes in the early universe that defy all ...

"It is exciting to think that Little Red Dots may represent the first direct observational evidence of the birth of the most ...

New data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) suggests that our Universe might be hidden deep inside a massive Black Hole. This video explores various topics including the comparison between ...

Astronomers have long chased a hard question: how did black holes grow so huge so fast. Researchers at Maynooth University in ...

You've heard of a supermassive black hole. Now, what about an "ultramassive" black hole? That descriptor is the only word researchers could use befitting a black hole recently spotted lurking far from ...

Black holes in the early Universe appear to have grown far faster than scientists once believed. Astronomers have long struggled to explain how black holes became enormous so early in the Universe’s ...

The short answer is yes: When two black holes merge, the resulting black hole has both more mass and a larger diameter. How much bigger? Let’s find out! When astronomers talk about the size of a black ...

A study in Nature finds that black holes in the early Universe go through short periods of ultra-fast growth, followed by long periods of dormancy. Scientists have spotted a massive black hole in the ...

We now have direct images of two supermassive black holes: M87* and Sag A*. The fact that we can capture such images is ...

Astronomers have spotted a rare, rule-breaking quasar in the early Universe that appears to be growing its central black hole ...

Researchers believe the 'ultramassive' black hole is big enough to be the largest of its kind ever detected. Black holes are regions of space where the pull of gravity is so intense that even light ...
