Hubble Space Telescope, black hole
1st results of XRISM X-ray space telescope reveal black hole and supernova secrets
XRISM allowed astronomers to track plasma as it circled the supermassive black hole at a distance of around 0.1 light-years away. This material gradually moved inwards to a distance of around 0.001 light-years (about the distance between the sun and Uranus) before falling into the black hole.
Scientists Spot Giant Black Hole Destroying Galaxy
Strange Universe Like a parasite sucking the life force out of its host, an international group of scientists have determined that a supermassive black hole is starving a galaxy of essential materials to make new stars.
Biggest black hole jets ever seen span 140 Milky Way galaxies
An artist's illustration of the longest black hole jet system ever observed. Nicknamed Porphyrion after a mythological Greek giant, these jets span roughly 7 megaparsecs, or 23 million light- years. That is equivalent to lining up 140 Milky Way galaxies back-to-back. Credit: E. Wernquist / D. Nelson (IllustrisTNG Collaboration) / M. Oei
Biggest black hole jets ever seen are as long as 140 Milky Ways
The largest-ever black hole jets ever seen hint that these cosmic monsters may play an even more significant role in shaping galaxies than previously thought.
Astronomers Discover Record-Breaking Jets Escaping a Black Hole, the Longest Ever Seen
The energetic streams are together 23 million light-years in length—roughly as long as 140 Milky Way galaxies lined end to end
Hubble Space Telescope uncovers surprising number of black holes formed soon after the Big Bang: Report
Researchers using NASAs Hubble Space Telescope discovered numerous black holes in the early universe. Heres how it will help in enhancing our understanding of galaxy formation and black hole evolution.
23 million light-years-wide black hole jets discovered
The most massive discovered black hole jets, extending on to incredibly 23 million light-years. To look it through that lens, that’s approximately the length of 140 Milky Way galaxies positioned in a straight line.
Hubble finds a surge of black holes after the Big Bang
Hubble reveals a surprising number of early black holes, offering new insights into their formation. Led by Stockholm University astronomers.
2 black hole pairs about to collide… Scientists stunned by cosmic first
In a groundbreaking astronomical discovery, scientists have observed two pairs of supermassive black holes on the verge of merging. This unprecedented event, occurring in two dwarf galaxies, offers a unique glimpse into the formation and evolution of galaxies in the early universe.
