Supermassive black holes are found at the center of massive galaxies like our own Milky Way. Check out these 7 rare images of ...

The team observed two merging galaxies and discovered that the energy from a quasar is actively transforming the gas within its companion galaxy, thereby dictating whether new stars can form.

A supermassive black hole in the early Universe has been spotted blasting out powerful jets of plasma that are at least twice ...

The picture that Achenbach and Nyland propose is ... “I just think there’s a lot more going on under the hood of the AGN-quasar umbrella than we’re currently aware of,” says Cionitti.

DECam provided a clearer picture because it facilitated the only study yet that included large-area-to-small-area data. "DECam's extremely wide view is necessary for studying quasar neighborhoods ...

Astronomers witnessed two galaxies engaged in an intense deep-space battle for the first time. Watch the “cosmic joust” in action.

The moment one galaxy spears another with a powerful beam of radiation shooting from its central black hole has been spotted ...
