Hubble Offers Closest Look at Quasar 3C 273, Reveal Hidden Structures
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured unprecedented views of quasar 3C 273, located 2.5 billion light-years away. Using the STIS coronagraph, researchers uncovered unusual structures around the black hole, including an extragalactic jet and a mysterious L-shaped filament. The findings hint at galaxy interactions fuelling the quasar’s activ...

Researchers Propose New Methods to Spot Atom-Sized Primordial Black Holes Moving Across Solar System
Recent studies suggest that microscopic primordial black holes may exist within the solar system, potentially impacting planetary orbits and satellite movements. These small, early-universe black holes could also contribute to the mystery of dark matter, which makes up 85% of the universe's mass. Methods are being developed to detect their gravitat...

NASA’s Chandra Telescope Observes Mysterious 'Knots' Blasting from Nearby Black Hole Jets
NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory has unveiled mysterious "knots" in the jet of a supermassive black hole in Centaurus A, a nearby galaxy. These bright, fast-moving features exhibit a higher speed in X-rays than in radio wavelengths, hinting at unexplored physics in black hole jets. Despite financial uncertainties surrounding Chandra's operations,...

MIT's AXIS Mission Advances in NASA’s Astrophysics Probe Competition
The MIT-led AXIS mission, a finalist in NASA's Probe Explorers competition, is set to investigate the origins of black holes and the universe's high-energy events. Featuring advanced X-ray technology, AXIS will push cosmic boundaries in search of answers to some of astrophysics' most profound questions. If approved, the $1 billion mission will revo...

JWST Spots Isolated Supermassive Black Hole-Powered Quasars in the Early Universe
A team using the James Webb Space Telescope has discovered supermassive black hole-powered quasars in unexpectedly isolated environments. These lonely quasars, some of the earliest in the universe, present a mystery as they lack the dense surroundings that current theories suggest are needed for black hole growth. This discovery is pushing scientis...

India’s AstroSat and NASA's Space Observatories Collaborate to Unravel Black Hole’s Mystery
Researchers from NASA and India’s ISRO have collaborated to study the interaction between a massive black hole and a star that ventured too close. Using multiple observatories, including AstroSat, they discovered the link between tidal disruption events and quasi-periodic eruptions. This research offers new insights into the expanding debris disk...

Ancient Black Holes Might Be Passing Through Our Solar System Frequently, Study Claims
Primordial black holes, which may have formed shortly after the Big Bang, could pass through the solar system once per decade. These black holes are much lighter and smaller than typical black holes, yet their gravitational effects may help scientists uncover the mystery of dark matter. Detecting gravitational disruptions from these flybys might be...
