As black holes slowly vanish through Hawking radiation, their information may be preserved in subtle space-time ripples, a new theory suggests.
Using the NASA space telescopes Hubble and Chandra astronomers have discovered a strange black hole that has been knocked on its side in a cosmic crime scene.
A "missing link" black hole in Omega Centauri is still missing. What appeared to be an intermediate-mass black hole was a cluster of stellar-mass black holes.
The James Webb Space Telescope has caught a napping monster black hole in the early universe. The cosmic giant is slumbering after a massive meal like a reveller on Christmas Day.
Black hole formation could be a little Big Bang in reverse, coupling the matter of a dying star with dark energy, the mysterious force driving the accelerating expansion of the universe.
Could dark matter decay have given massive clouds of hydrogen gas the time they needed to birth supermassive black holes seen by the James Webb Space Telescope?
The highest energy cosmic rays and neutrinos that rain down on Earth may come from white dwarf stars being devoured by black holes
Recent speculation about the latest gravitational wave experiments suggested they may have seen a neutron star merger, but it’s another black hole smashup
Can a fluid analogue of a black hole point physicists toward the theory of quantum gravity, or is it a red herring? The post
