Images taken of the Universe's most photogenic black hole over time reveal strange and exciting changes in its magnetic field. Using observations obtained using the Event Horizon Telescope in 2017, ...

The magnetic field swirling around an enormous black hole, located about 55 million light-years from Earth, has unexpectedly switched directions. This dramatic reversal challenges theories of black ...

Listen to more stories on the Noa app. To study the origins of our universe is to struggle with profound chicken-or-egg questions. We know the Big Bang happened. Cosmologists can see its afterglow in ...

Supermassive black holes may not be as massive as previously thought, according to a new discovery by scientists. Astronomers from the University of Southampton, working with colleagues from France, ...

One of the most powerful black holes in the universe is belching out gas at speeds of up to 10,000 kilometers per second, making its estimated mass more than 10 times lower than first thought. The ...

A supermassive black hole in the far reaches of the Universe has been found guzzling down material at one of the fastest rates ever seen. At the heart of a quasar galaxy called RACS J0320-35, just 920 ...

Mathematical quirks of our universe have led some cosmologists to wonder whether the cosmos was actually born in a black hole. Parallels in the physics of the universe and that of black holes have led ...

The supermassive black hole is that first one that astronomers ever photographed. For more than a century, astronomers have marveled at the brilliant jet of matter blasting from the heart of the giant ...

We have found hot wind blasting out from our galaxy’s supermassive black hole for the first time, which could help us understand its mysterious inactivity. Compared to many other supermassive black ...

Black Hole Sign is, on the surface, a fairly conventional drama about the state of the NHS. It’s set in a hospital ward during a night shift at a time when the service is overstretched and the nurses ...

The images, captured with the Event Horizon Telescope, show the magnetic field of the supermassive black hole M87* completely reversing. EHT Collaboration Observations of a supermassive black hole ...

Some things in cosmology may simply be unknowable. Why is there something rather than nothing? What lies outside the universe? What is inside a black hole? That last one has been niggling at ...
