Astronomers have spotted wildly wobbling jets of particles spewing out of a black hole, and they think this unusually rapid motion could be happening because the black hole is warping space around it.

The Sagittarius A* supermassive black hole at the core of the Milky Galaxy may be "warping the spacetime surrounding it into ...

Researchers have found that the supermassive black hole in the center of our Milky Way galaxy, known as Sagittarius A*, is spinning so rapidly that it is altering the fabric of space-time around ...

By looking at radio waves and X-ray emissions, a team of physicists has found the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* to be spinning— and altering space-time around it.

A* and how it is bending space-time around it. Image source: NASA/CXC/M.Weiss The researchers estimate that the Milky Way’s black hole is spinning at 60 percent of its maximum possible speed.

Two massive black holes will merge in 10,000 years, in a collision that will send ripples across the universe, a new study finds. The research, led by a team of astronomers from CalTech, found ...

A supermassive monster lurks at the center of our galaxy, and astronomers have now discovered that it’s spinning so fast it’s warping the very fabric of spacetime into a football shape.

Astronomers may have for the first time detected and measured the mass of an isolated stellar-mass black hole, a new study finds.

Black holes twist the very fabric of space and time, bending light cones so drastically that time and space swap roles, transforming the horizon from a place into a moment, and the center into an ...

For the first time, physicists have visualized what goes on during the collision of two black holes, providing insight into what one researcher calls the "stormy behavior" of space and time during ...

One researcher relates the epic discovery of these supermassive voids to "a good detective novel." In about 10,000 years, they'll merge and send ripples across the universe.

Warp drives have been a dream of sci-fi nerds and theoretical physicists alike for decades now. Able to transport ship and crew vast distances across space without subjecting those onboard to the ...
