Rare Mid-Sized Black Hole Spotted At Center Of Swallowed Galaxy: Study
Astronomers have scrutinized a cluster of stars that is the apparent remnant core of a relatively small galaxy that was swallowed by the sprawling Milky Way 8 to 10 billion years ago. What lurks at the center of this cluster has them excited.

Hubble Telescope Research Shows Black Holes Could Aid Star Formation
A recent research based on Hubble Space Telescope findings showed that black holes could go against their all-absorbing nature at times and may aid creation. The research showed a supermassive black hole at the centre of a dwarf galaxy, some 30 million light-years away, creating stars rather than swallowing it.

'Brightest Supernova' Result Of Giant Black Hole Destroying Star
An intense flare detected last year in a distant galaxy about four billion light years from Earth, considered to be the brightest supernova ever observed, is actually a tidal disruption event (TDE) -- the destruction of a star by a rapidly spinning super massive black hole, suggests new research.

Scientists Caught Black Holes Swallowing Stars - And Burping Energy Back Up
Supermassive black holes are voracious beasts. Their tremendous gravitational pull sucks in everything that gets too close, including stars.

Scientists Just Caught Black Hole Swallowing Star - And Burping A Bit Back Out
Astronomers have caught black holes in the act of murdering stars before. But a study published Thursday in Science claims to have caught a step in the crime that has remained elusive until now.

First Glimpse of Black Hole Swallowing Star, Ejecting Flare
Scientists have for the first time witnessed a black hole swallowing a star in a galaxy 300 million light years away and ejecting a flare of matter moving at nearly the speed of light.
