Medicine & TechnologyA black hole is a region in space where gravity is so extreme that not even light can escape. But will Earth ever be pulled into one? Find out the answer in this article and know what to expect if that happens.
A black hole had a spaghetti feast, which astronomers witnessed from 215 million light-years away in a spiral galaxy. Read to know more about spaghettification.
Astronomers observed a sun-like star with strange orbital characteristics and concluded it must be part of a black hole binary system, the closest to Earth. Check it out in this article.
A pair of supermassive black holes are on the verge of a collision, and a new model is suggesting that this might occur within the next three years. Read to know more.
Scientists are anticipating the merging of two supermassive black holes about 1 billion light-years away in the next three years. Read the article to know details about this cosmic event.
Astronomers have observed for the first time a star being shredded for being too close to a black hole. Read more to understand tidal disruption event and why it involves "spaghettification."
A magnetic reversal from a galaxy 236 million light-years away may have caused a magnetic flip to the field surrounding a black hole. Read on to learn more details on this "strange explosive episode."
Astronomers from MIT discovered eight new sources of black hole echoes in the Milky Way galaxy. Read why the discovery is significant and listen to their echoing sound.
With the discovery of 2 supermassive black holes near the galaxy we are expecting a ‘titanic collision.’ Discover how the pair moves to shake space and time.
Gravitational-wave scientists reported that in the event of a collision and subsequent merging of two black holes, the resulting black hole "chirps" not just once, but multiple times.
Black holes are believed to have existed since the formation of the galaxy, yet we know so little about them. A series of simulations reveals what happens when two stars collide and how scientists can detect the energy of black holes in space.
Recent reports are saying that supermassive black holes might unravel the mystifying fifth force of the universe based on the latest studies of space experts.
Through the use of the word's most powerful laser beams, scientists were able to generate a molecular type black hole. The experiment is found significant in further studies on individual biological objects like bacteria and viruses.
When it comes to high-speed collisions, nobody here on Earth has anything on black holes. Astronomers have witnessed a new first: two high-speed knots of matter colliding in a sort of rear-end impact. They saw this after creating a time-lapse video of a super-speed jet of plasma as it shot out of a supermassive black hole. The knots of matter were inside the black hole until it blasted them out-and into each other.
