In 2023, scientists detected the gravitational waves from a black hole collision that seemed impossible. New research finally ...

Researchers have confirmed a new gravitational wave event originating from a violent collision in deep space. The signal, ...

Virgo-KAGRA collaboration. Their detectors captured the gravitational waves created by the violent crash of two immense black ...

Gravitational waves shake the very fabric of the universe when black holes collide. Today we measure these events and use them to understand the cosmos. Now University of Copenhagen researchers and ...

Scientists have begun to unravel the origin story of a cataclysmic collision between two black holes, which seem to have met their fate on a rarely observed "squashed" orbital path. The binary black ...

(CNN) — Astronomers have detected a collision between two black holes in unprecedented detail, offering the clearest view yet into the nature of these cosmic oddities and confirming long-held ...

Back in 2019, the gravitational wave observatories LIGO and Virgo detected major ripples in spacetime. While astronomers generally agree that the event, dubbed GW190521, was the result of two black ...

For the first time, scientists observed a black hole tearing apart a star far from its galaxy’s center, producing the fastest-changing radio signals ever recorded. The event, AT 2024tvd, revealed ...

Astronomers spotted the largest flare ever released from a supermassive black hole as it snacked on a giant star.
