Radiation within the visible spectrum can appear black if it is low in power – more specifically, lower in power than its ...
From decades of astronomical observations, scientists know that most galaxies contain massive black holes at their centers.
One of those detections was EP240408a, an unusual blast that lit up discussions between astronomers. Zhang and his colleagues ...
The supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way appears to be having a party—and it is weird, wild and wonderful.
The use of terahertz waves, which have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies than radio waves, could enable faster data transmission, more precise medical imaging, and higher-resolution radar.
Astrophysicists used the JWST to observe central supermassive black hole for 48 hours total across one year. They found the ...
Full Snow Moon Photos! 🌕 Night sky tonight! "Flares are expected to happen in essentially all supermassive black holes, but our black hole is unique." ...
Astronomers have characterized the largest-ever early-Universe radio jet. Historically, such large radio jets have remained elusive in the distant Universe. With these observations, astronomers have ...
Astronomers have discovered a massive, double-lobed radio jet stretching 200,000 light-years from a quasar that existed when ...
A team of physicists led by Jonathan Richardson of the University of California, Riverside, demonstrated how new optical ...
Scientists have created the first-ever 3D maps of star-forming molecular clouds near the Milky Way's supermassive black hole, ...
New observations using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) reveal a "unique" ongoing, rapid-fire light show.
