This creates a long fall toward the event horizon—the black hole’s point of no return—giving particles more time and space to accelerate.

The black hole is located 11.6 billion light-years from Earth, with its powerful jet illuminated by the leftover glow from the Big Bang.

A team of scientists is proposing a bold alternative to the Big Bang theory, suggesting that our universe may have instead formed inside a colossal black hole.

Jets emitted by supermassive black holes contain electrons moving at near-light speeds. When these electrons collide with photons from the cosmic microwave background, they transfer some of their ...

A black hole has blasted out a surprisingly powerful jet in the distant universe, according to a new study from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. This jet exists early enough in the cosmos that it ...

The Facebook icon now is appearing as a black background with a blue "F," rather than the traditional white on blue, for some users.

Dark matter formed when fast particles slowed down and got heavy, new theory says Date: May 14, 2025 Source: Dartmouth College Summary: Researchers propose a new theory for the origin of dark ...

While there are some advantages of using dark mode, it may not be good for you. Here's why you may want to avoid the light-on-dark theme.

Hot, fast-moving particles dominated the cosmos after the burst of energy known as the Big Bang that scientists believe triggered the universe's expansion 13.7 billion years ago.

Similar particles, shot out from black holes, could carry the signature of new physics—perhaps even dark matter. “The difference between a supercollider and a black hole is that black holes ...
