"In order to get such high sensitivity in the mid-infrared, one needs to go to space, as the atmosphere severely messes up ground-based observations at this wavelength." ...

A near-infrared view of the stars near the center of the Milky Way galaxy. - ESO / S. Gillessen et al. Astronomers suspect the giant black hole at the heart of the Milky Way may have collided with ...

The image of supermassive black hole Sagittarius A * was created using data from the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration.

(NewsNation) — A team of astronomers have found a new and unknown object in the Milky Way galaxy that could shed light on the formation of black holes. The object could be an actual black hole, or it ...

Intermediate mass black holes (IMBH), if they exist, have between about 100 and 1,000 solar masses, placing them in between ...

“The supermassive black hole at the centre of the Milky Way has not only the capability to destroy stars but it can also ...

ESA's Gaia mission, the Very Large Telescope and other ground-based telescopes have discovered stellar black hole Gaia BH3.

A new generation of black hole research is unfolding thanks to artificial intelligence, massive simulations, and cutting-edge computing. Scientists have used a powerful neural network trained with ...

Astronomers have discovered 53 new supermassive black hole-powered quasars that are blasting out jets of matter at near light ...
