Astrophysicists have reconstructed the movement of stars within globular clusters to understand their evolution and origin.
A recent study has proposed a new mechanism for the formation of primordial black holes that could provide answers about dark matter.
Black holes exert a tremendous influence on their surroundings, meaning that when they spin, they literally drag the very fabric of space and time around with them. That means nothing can sit still ...
Stars have a life and death-cycle. Those that are about eight times more massive than the Sun explode as supernovae at the ...
The outward force from its fusion can no longer counteract the star's powerful gravity, and the star collapses in on itself.
When we go backwards in time through the history of the cosmos, the distances and volumes shrink, while the average energy ...
There are monstrous objects at the heart of every large galaxy — black holes that are millions or even billions of times more ...
Astrophysicists have developed a method to detect light echoes from black holes, potentially revolutionizing the measurement ...

A fresh analysis of decades-old X-ray black hole jet data has revealed bright, lumpy features with mysterious speed changes.
Astronomers say they've found an "interstellar tunnel" near our solar system that potentially leads to the vicinity of other ...
The Sagittarius A* supermassive black hole at the core of the Milky Galaxy may be "warping the spacetime surrounding it into ...
