Einstein was right- Scientists confirmed Gravitational Waves
The most significant scientific discovery of the decade has just been announced: Einstein’s gravitational wave theory proven by the sound of two black holes colliding.
Enormous Blast from supermassive Black Hole in a Galaxy Far, Far Away
A giant jet spanning continuously from supermassive black hole, for over 300,000 light years, is seen blasting out of the galaxy Pictor A.
Visible light emitted from a Black Hole detected for first time
Astronomers have discovered that black holes can be observed through a simple amateur telescope, from the violent bursts of light released when material from surrounding space falls
What’s inside a Black Hole’s disk
Stunning new image by the orbiting X-ray observatory, shows the disk of gas and dust surrounding a supermassive black hole, that is clumpy and not smooth.
