New Black Hole Found

An international team of researchers, led by scientists from Stockholm University's Department of Astronomy, has discovered a higher number of black holes in the early universe than was previously recorded. Using the NASA Hubble Space Telescope, this team found black holes among faint galaxies formed shortly after the Big Bang event.

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has revealed surprising new details about the universe's reionization process. The telescope has found an unexpected oversupply of ultraviolet (UV) light emitted by early stars and giant black holes, contradicting previous theories. This discovery suggests a more complex reionization process, potentially d...

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.

Supermassive black holes are a mysterious celestial phenomenon that have fascinated space enthusiasts and scientists alike for years. Researchers from Dartmouth College have conducted a study that analyses the light from supermassive black holes to better understand the life cycles of these supermassuve black holes.

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 have found new 39 gravitational-wave events caused by collision of black holes and neutron stars far in the universe. These, along with previously observed 11 events, will help them understand the population of black holes and neutron stars across the universe.

NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory has found evidence of powerful blasts of gases produced by a super massive black hole about 26 million light years from Earth, an event that may trigger the formation of new stars.

In a first, a team including an Indian-origin astronomer has found evidence for a new intermediate-mass black hole about 5,000 times the mass of the Sun.

Astronomers have found a new super-powered small black hole in a nearby galaxy, located 15 million light years away from Earth.

NASA's Swift satellite has found evidence of the presence of a previously unknown stellar-mass black hole in our Milky Way galaxy. Named Swift J1745-26 after the coordinates of its sky position, the nova is located a few degrees from the centre of our galaxy towards the constellation Sagittarius, NASA said.
