Ripples in the fabric of space-time called gravitational waves may be the key to solving the Hubble tension — one of the biggest nagging problems in physics.

A subtle gravitational-wave “hum” from merging black holes may help settle the cosmic fight over how fast the universe is ...

Like physics, math has its own set of “fundamental particles”—the prime numbers, which can’t be broken down into smaller ...

Astronomers have used the LOFAR telescope array to create the largest radio survey of the cosmos, revealing 13.7 million ...

University of Oregon astronomer Yvette Cendes made a surprising discovery years after a black hole shredded a star. What is ...

Black holes that turn matter into energy could explain dark energy and answer two other cosmic questions. Now, the challenge ...

Gravitational lenses could allow us to find black hole binaries long before we're able to measure their gravitational waves.

LOFAR’s LoTSS-DR3 survey maps 13.7 million radio sources, revealing black hole jets, supernovas, galaxy clusters and new details about magnetic fields in the Milky Way and beyond ...

The black hole would have to be within 25 light years from Earth, and we haven’t seen one that close yet. That’s not stopping Cosimo Bambi.

Astronomers have found growing evidence that runaway black holes are hurtling through galaxies at extreme speeds, leaving vast stellar trails behind, but could one ever wander near our solar system?

Hidden deep within the Milky Way, a surprising discovery has been made: over 100 black holes tucked away in the Palomar 5 ...

Last year, astronomers were fascinated by a runaway asteroid passing through our Solar System from somewhere far beyond. It was moving at around 68 kilometres per second, just over double Earth’s ...
