Falling into a black hole The black hole that we, as the viewer of the NASA simulation, are falling into has a mass of around 4.3 million times that of the sun. That makes it a supermassive black hole similar to Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), the black hole at the heart of the Milky ...
National Aeronautics & Space Administration's (NASA) cancellation of Gravity and Extreme Magnetism Small Explorer (GEMS) project to develop an X-ray telescope. It mentions that the cancellation is due to cost overruns. It adds that X-ray telescope is designed to find neutron stars, black holes...
NASA scientists have published a sonification of a black hole with a remix. It was found at the center of the Perseus galaxy cluster, located some 200 million light-years away. The actual sounds are out of the human hearing range, but NASA scaled the sounds up from their t...
The shadow of a black hole is the closest we can come to an image of the black hole itself, according to the EHT scientists. "The black hole’s boundary — the event horizon from which the EHT takes its name — is around 2.5 time...

(NASA) – This new visualization of a black hole illustrates how its gravity distorts our view, warping its surroundings as if seen in a carnival mirror. The visualization simulates the appearance of a black hole where infalling matter has collected into a thin, hot structure called an accret...
Using a telescope the size of the planet, astronomers have captured the first image of this space oddity. Here's why that matters.
However, this is now possible throughNASA's sonifications remix, which is providing more notes to the black hole sound machine. This sonification is the translation of astronomical data, and it was released in light of NASA's Black Hole Week this year. ...
black hole, but in late December of 2024, NASA discovered something strange after re-analyzing data from the Chandra X-ray Observatory [along with additional back-up from the Hubble Space Telescope and the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA)]—NGC 5084’s supermassive black hole is tipped ...
NASA finds galaxy that looks like a "Star Wars" TIE fighter Scientists have spotted a galaxy that appears to be a member of Darth Vader's fleet. Aug 26, 2020 Star dancing around supermassive black hole proves Einstein right After studying the star for nearly 30 years, astronomers have...
