A team of scientists has developed a new model for ‘very massive stars’ and their impact on the formation of black holes.

Very massive stars, over 100 times the mass of the sun, eject significant amounts of matter through powerful stellar winds before collapsing into black holes.

Very massive stars are cosmic "rock stars" that live fast, die young and leave black holes in their place. During this ...

Gravitational waves stretch and squeeze the fabric of space and time itself. When space/time is squeezed, pulsar pulses ...

The image of supermassive black hole Sagittarius A * was created using data from the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration.

These black holes are the most distant and stable objects we know. Using a technique called very long baseline interferometry ...

The scientists who precisely measure the position of Earth are in a bit of trouble. Their measurements are essential for the ...

A new study lends support to the notion that JuMBOs (Jupiter-mass binary objects) discovered by the James Webb Space ...

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory is poised to discover billions of new astronomical objects, revolutionizing understanding of ...

Researchers used an AI model to create a new image of the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, with some concern from ...

Black holes generally come in two sizes: big and really big. As they are so dense, they are measured in terms of mass rather than size, and astronomers call these two groups of stellar mass black ...

First observed in 1780 by French astronomer Pierre Méchain and added to the Messier Catalogue, the galaxy was initially thought to be a comet or a nebula. Its actual nature as a galaxy was only ...
