The black hole, with an official name of 1ES 1927+654, is located in the distant constellation Draco. Astronomers have been monitoring the black hole for years, primarily since 2018 when the mass ...

A cosmic mystery surrounding a black hole some 270 million light-years from the Milky Way is deepening. For years, astronomers have been perplexed by this particular supermassive black hole ...

With stars no longer actively burning, energy in this era is generated through proton decay and particle annihilation. At this late stage, protons will have decayed and black holes will have ...

As far as supermassive black holes go, the one at the center of the Milky Way is relatively sedate. But, even in its supposed quiescent state, Sagittarius A* is prone to the occasional belch or ...

"Interestingly, the quasar powering this massive radio jet does not have an extreme black hole mass compared to other quasars." Astronomers have detected the largest black hole-launched jet ever ...

"If they are growing black holes, and we think at least 70% of them are, this hints at an era of obscured black hole growth in the early universe." When LRDs were first discovered, some suggested ...

This discovery, involving the blazar J0410-0139, offers insights into the formation of early supermassive black holes and suggests the presence of many other similar cosmic entities from that era. Rea ...

"Finding more supermassive black holes that are potentially hosting jets raises the question as to how these black holes grew so big in such a short timescale." Astronomers have discovered a ...

The supermassive black hole has been sending out flashes that have increased in speed. Astronomers say they have never seen anything like it before. The black hole is known as 1ES 1927+654 ...

WASHINGTON, Jan 14 (Reuters) - Scientists have detected emanating from the nucleus of a galaxy relatively close to our Milky Way flashes of X-rays gradually increasing in frequency that seem to be ...

A CRACK IN EVERYTHING: How Black Holes Came In From the Cold and Took Cosmic Centre Stage, by Marcus Chown When writing about the complexities of our universe, the astronomer turned author Marcus ...
