Astronomers capture the twinkle of a distant quasar, RX J1131, and reveal the secret size of a black hole's fiery corona.

A monstrous black hole in a distant galaxy has earned itself a nickname worthy of a science-fiction horror movie for its gluttonous feasting on any stars that dare get near. Meet "Space Jaws." NASA ...

In a major leap forward, scientists, using the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT), have captured the sharpest images yet of distant galactic centers. Using light at a frequency of 345 GHz, they’ve peered ...

Astronomers saw past the blinding light of a quasar, only to find a supermassive black hole that's much smaller than theoretical predictions. Reading time 2 minutes All galaxies have a supermassive ...

After decades of searching, astronomers have imaged two supermassive black holes in orbit around each other at the heart of quasar OJ287. Astronomers have captured a radio image showing two black ...
