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

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

In 2023, a subatomic particle called a neutrino crashed into Earth with such a high amount of energy that it should have been impossible. In fact, there are no known sources anywhere in the universe ...

In 1974, physicist Stephen Hawking described the potential for tiny, primordial black holes that existed at the dawn of time to explode — and reshaped what we knew about these cosmic behemoths.

Scientists say an ultra-powerful neutrino once thought impossible may be explained by an exotic black hole model involving a so-called “dark charge.” ...

A burst of X-rays from 8 billion years ago may be the first clear evidence of a white dwarf torn apart by a black hole.

The KM3NeT collaboration is a large research group involved in the operation of a neutrino telescope network in the deep ...

We go in depth on black holes: the strangest objects in the universe! Black holes are not just the strangest objects in the universe, they're the sharpest test we have of how reality actually works.

A distant quasar is defying two fundamental expectations of black hole physics. The object, known as ID830, is growing at 13 ...

Since it turned on, the James Webb Space Telescope has revealed dozens of mysterious red blobs in space. The so-called Little ...

If a new proposal by physicists bears out, the recent detection of a record-setting neutrino could be the first evidence of elusive Hawking radiation. (Nanowerk News) The last gasp of a primordial ...

One of the most notable aspects about our planet—if observed from the outside—is that it spins. Earth’s spin defines our days, setting the fundamental rhythm of life on our world. The moon spins, too.
