The Hubble Space Telescope has spotted a runaway supermassive black hole racing through space followed by a tail of infant stars 200,000 light-years long.

NASA finds supermassive black hole called ‘Space Jaws:’ Why it deserves sci-fi horror name. Eric Lagatta, USA TODAY NETWORK - Florida. Mon, May 12, 2025 at 6:37 PM UTC. 5 min read.

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 it.

NASA finds supermassive black hole called ‘Space Jaws:’ Why it deserves sci-fi horror name A sneaky black hole was the source of a tidal disruption event that was so large and so bright that ...

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.

First up is WR 124, a type of star called a Wolf-Rayet which is a potential precursor to a black hole. As these old, massive stars come to the end of their lives, they start throwing off layers of ...

Black holes were predicted by Albert Einstein through his general theory of relativity in 1915 — but the idea of a black hole is actually much older, according the European Space Agency.

The lonely black hole has been traveling space ever since, and it is now followed by a tail of stars an astonishing 200,000 light-years long. That’s twice as long as the Milky Way is wide.

Scientists found that the black hole at the center of our galaxy is spinning so fast its dragging space-time along. Don't worry. The distortion won't affect us.
