But in the past two decades, new types of black holes have been seen and astronomers are beginning to understand how they ...

Imagine if a species grew up on a planet that had a black hole moon the mass of the moon. They’d have tides, they’d have an unobstructed view of the night sky, and they’d have no clue about this ...

CIGA Design has unveiled the Blue Planet II Black Star Edition, a striking collaboration with Swiss atelier Label Noir that reimagines its Blue Planet series through a cosmic lens.

With the recent first light milestone for the Vera Rubin Observatory, it's only a matter of time before one of astronomy's most long-awaited surveys begins. The Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) ...

New research is shedding light on what researchers call "lite" intermediate-mass black holes, which are smaller, but still ...

These black holes are the most distant and stable objects we know. Using a technique called very long baseline interferometry ...

Learn how a "black hole 30 billion times the mass of the sun in a galaxy 2 billion light years away" using gravitational lensing, according to Durham University. Credit: Durham University ...

All black holes rotate to varying degrees, and their spin significantly alters the gravitational lensing process. In rapidly spinning black holes, the separation factor for successive images drops ...

Astronomers can’t see a black hole, but they can see the lensing effect and the gravitational pull on passing stars. The new study is based on recent observations using the Hubble Space ...
