Astronomers Find What May Be the Universe's Brightest Object With a Black Hole Devouring a Sun a Day

The brightest quasar in the universe discovered, 500 trillion times brighter than the sun, black hole 17 billion times more massive than the sun.

Astronomers detect sudden awakening of black hole 1m times mass of sun

A distant galaxy in the constellation of Virgo experienced a dramatic surge in luminosity due to the awakening of a giant black hole at its core.

Scientists capture the moment a massive black hole suddenly awakens

Scientists captured the sudden awakening of a supermassive black hole, emitting unprecedented light, similar to what could happen in our galaxy.

Celestial discovery: Astronomers watch a supermassive black hole awaken in real time

A supermassive black hole at the center of a distant galaxy is awakening, showing unprecedented changes in brightness over several years.

Revealed: the oldest black hole ever observed, dating to dawn of universe

Astronomers have detected the oldest black hole ever observed, dating back more than 13 billion years to the dawn of the universe.
The black hole is surprisingly large for its age, raising questions about how it grew so quickly.

The Event Horizon Telescope Just Made A Major Breakthrough - Black Holes Can Now Be Seen in 'Color Vision'

The Event Horizon Telescope can now observe the black hole in galaxy M87 with greater definition and color, enhancing our understanding of black hole dynamics.

Scientists Find Hidden Signal in Epic Cosmic Explosion

Scientists discovered a new phenomenon in a gamma ray burst that could explain its extreme power.

Astronomers May Have Just Found a Midsize Black Hole Lurking in the Milky Way

Astrophysicists potentially discovered a massive black hole near our Galaxy, second-largest if confirmed, possibly an intermediate-mass black hole.

Milky Way's 'Sleeping Giant' Black Hole Lurks Shockingly Close to Earth

The Milky Way has a new massive black hole, Gaia-BH3, 33 times more massive than the sun, located just 2,000 light years from Earth.

NASA simulation shows what it would be like to fall into a black hole

James Webb Finds Most Ancient Black Hole Ever Discovered

Astronomers have discovered the oldest black hole ever observed, formed just 400 million years after the Big Bang.
The black hole is so large for its age that it challenges current theories on how these objects form.

Venture inside a 'monster' supermassive black hole

A new image of the M87 black hole confirms the presence of a supermassive black hole at the center of the Messier 87 galaxy.
The image shows the shift in the bright 'shadow' of the black hole over time, confirming predictions based on Einstein's theories of relativity.

Monster gamma-ray burst is detected 310 miles above Earth

GRB 221009A, the brightest gamma ray burst ever recorded, caused disturbances in Earth's ionosphere.
Gamma ray bursts (GRBs) occur when the core of a massive star collapses and forms a black hole.
