The famous black hole M87 keeps surprising us. New research calculates its spin speed to be at 80% of the theoretical limit, ...

Scientists may have discovered a limit to how massive black holes can grow. If they are right, we may have already discovered the largest possible ultramassive black hole!

With monster ultramassive black holes like Phoenix A and Ton 618 out there, you might well wonder if there is a limit to just how big a black hole can get. Scientists have long wondered this, too ...

As federal funding cuts impact decades of research, scientists could turn to black holes for cheaper, natural alternatives to expensive facilities searching for dark matter and similarly elusive ...

The fossil was first found in the 1930s in Germany’s Solnhofen limestone, famous for preserving Jurassic life. One half ended ...

As federal funding cuts impact decades of research, scientists could turn to black holes for cheaper, natural alternatives to expensive facilities searching for dark matter and similarly elusive ...

If only black-footed ferrets had a brand ambassador like groundhogs have in Punxsutawney Phil.. The endangered ferrets don’t quite feel the same love as the famous groundhog, but they do get a ...

With this in mind, a team of scientists has discovered how the disks of gas and dust that swirl around black holes can become the powerful engines of galactic power plants. Here's what that means ...

To detect such high-energy particles, scientists could use observatories already tracking supernovae, massive black hole eruptions, and other cosmic events, Silk said. These include detectors like the ...

Scientists are BAFFLED after spotting a lone black hole drifting through space - with no star orbiting it. READ MORE: Study reveals how micro black hole would implode your brain By WILIAM HUNTER ...

An experimental setup mimics a “black hole bomb” first theorized in 1971. The spinning cylinder with circuitry is true to the original idea, showing that it can be plausible.
