Space-time curvature around a black hole might sound abstract, but understanding it is crucial to grasp the nature of these ...

Researchers used an AI model to create a new image of the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, with some concern from ...

A powerful new technique is poised to revolutionize how astronomers observe black holes, by producing sharp, multicolored ...

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

Image: EHT Collaboration Black holes are infamous for being invisible. But thanks to a new technique from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) team, we’re about to start seeing them in color.

When any object gets close to a supermassive black hole, it's typically ensnared in a powerful gravitational pull. That's due to the event horizon – a theoretical boundary known as the "point ...

What is on the event horizon for a black hole? Where does it come from? Answering these questions would be a step towards realizing a quantum theory of gravity.” According to Rinaldi ...

No matter their starting size, black holes can grow throughout their lives, slurping gas and dust from any objects that creep too close. Anything that passes the event horizon, the point at which ...

But what happens inside a black hole, beyond the event horizon from which nothing can escape, remains a mystery. In 1965, the British physicist Roger Penrose proved that under very general ...

The defining feature of a black hole is the event horizon, a region from which nothing can escape. Evidence of black holes thus relies on observing the extreme effects black holes have on their ...
