Scientists Create a Black Hole Bomb in a Lab And Prove a 50-Year-Old Energy-Stealing Theory Black holes have fascinated physicists for decades—mysterious cosmic beasts whose gravitational pull ...

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 ...

Scientists studying the earliest black holes may have found an answer to dark matter, putting Stephen Hawking’s theory on the subject back into the spotlight.

Scientists have obtained the first ever proof that black holes can lose energy. They've long believed that magnetic fields could suck energy out of black holes but didn't have proof — until now.

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 ...

Black holes are bizarre things, even by the standards of astronomers. Their mass is so great, it bends space around them so tightly that nothing can escape, even light itself. And yet, despite their ...

Scientists may have just solved the famous Hawking information paradox. The paradox states that information can neither be emitted from a black hole or preserved inside forever.

When Stephen Hawking and I visited the Large Hadron Collider, he hoped for an unexpected physics breakthrough. His dreams may not be impossible. "I hope you'll make black holes," Stephen said with ...
