The James Webb Space Telescope has found perhaps its most profound discovery to date. The uncovered preferred direction for ...

Swirling through the Milky Way's central zone, in the turbulent region surrounding the supermassive black hole at the core of ...

New research challenges our understanding of black holes, proposing they may not be cosmic dead ends after all.

For this reason black holes are invisible to the eye, as lightless as the empty, dark space surrounding them. Scientists know they exist not because they can see an actual hole, b ...

Why Do Black Holes Form? Black holes form when a huge amount of matter is squeezed into a very small space. Cram enough ...

"One explanation is that the universe was born rotating. That explanation agrees with theories such as black hole cosmology, which postulates that the entire universe is the interior of a black hole." ...

Black holes form when a star collapses under its own gravity, creating a singularity – a point of infinite density where the laws of physics as we know them cease to operate. However ...

A new study challenges the idea that black holes are cosmic endpoints. Instead, researchers suggest they transition into white holes, expelling matter and energy rather than trapping them forever.
