Imagine waking up one morning to the news: a black hole is drifting close to our solar system. It sounds like the plot of a .

As per a report from Space.com, researchers used sophisticated models and observations to learn that very massive stars give ...

What’s really inside a black hole? Long considered one of the greatest cosmic mysteries, black holes were first predicted in 1916 through Einstein’s theory of relativity. Yet it wasn’t until the 1960s ...

Starved of matter, a dormant black hole will eventually return to power once a star, planet, or other space stuff strays too close to its galactic realm.

The black hole wrapped the layers of the shredded star around itself to form the perfect doughnut of doom.

"Very massive stars are like the 'rock stars' of the universe — they are powerful, and they live fast and die young." ...

It's the first time a "dormant" black hole has been unambiguously detected outside the Milky Way, the researchers say.

It might sound like the culmination of a Bond villain's latest evil scheme. But the world's first 'black hole bomb' has officially become a reality.

The conventional wisdom among astronomers is that black holes - those exceptionally dense objects with gravity so powerful that not even light can escape - form in the violent explosion, called a ...

A black hole bomb – an idea first proposed in 1969 – has now been realised in the lab as a toy model made from a rotating cylinder and magnetic coils. Studying the bomb could help us better ...

Astronomers used the James Webb Space Telescope and NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory to find that a black hole was consuming matter 40 times faster than thought possible.

In this recent study, the research team attempted to take that black hole bomb concept from idea to reality—or, at least, take the first step towards reality by creating a toy model.
