Dormant Black Hole Deemed ‘Needle in a Haystack’ Identified Outside the Milky Way
- Tuesday July 19, 2022

Astronomers have identified a black hole that not only is classified as dormant but appears to have been born without the explosion of a dying star, in a galaxy adjacent to the Milky Way. Black holes are extraordinarily dense objects with gravity so intense not even light can escape. Deemed a cosmic "needle in a haystack", the newly discovered ‘d...

Eight New Echoing Black Hole Binaries Discovered in Our Galaxy: MIT Researchers

- Edited by Gadgets 360 Newsdesk
Black holes are intriguing and mysterious objects. They are dreaded, too, because their gravitational pull is so strong that they do not allow anything to pass through them, not even light, except on the rare occasions when they feed. When a black hole pulls in gas and dust from an orbiting star, it sends out spectacular bursts of X-ray that bounce...

Astrophysicists Detect Black Hole-Neutron Star Mergers For The First Time
- Friday July 2, 2021
- Edited by Gadgets 360 Newsdesk
Astrophysicists say that the newly observed phenomena will allow them to better understand the formation of binary star systems and how often they merge, something that has never been measured before.
