"We want to understand how these galaxies are forming stars, how many stars they’re forming, and especially how the black ...

The red coloration of these surprisingly bright early galaxies is thought to come from gas and dust in a flattened cloud of matter around supermassive black holes called an accretion disk.

Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have discovered evidence that suggests the presence of a long-sought supermassive black hole at the heart of the nearby spiral galaxy ...

The study looked at what might happen to Earth-like plants in older galaxies like "red nugget relics", where stars are all clustered near the black hole, and found out that in this case ...

This suggests the material is orbiting a supermassive black hole, which powers active galactic nuclei (AGN). The problem with the AGN model for the little red dots is that their intensity in the ...

Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have made a groundbreaking discovery of an "extremely red" supermassive black hole in the early universe. The red hue observed around this ...

Languages: English. Astrophysicists have teased a hellish potential future in which life on Earth is extinguished by deadly radiation from the supermassive black hole at the heart of the Milky Way.

Q: If the gravity of a black hole is so strong that nothing can escape from it, not even light, how has the Hubble Space Telescope recorded images of gas jets ejected from black holes?

ANAHEIM, Calif. — Long after the black hole in the center of a galaxy sputters out, you can still see its ghost lingering in surrounding gas clouds aglow with leftover radiation, like wisps of ...

Pairs circle around each other ... Then pairs and small groups make contact ‘hole’ shapes for other group members to travel through, to suggest a black hole and its gravitational pull.
