When it comes to space travel, Albert Einstein's theory of relativity is a major inconvenience. With the laws of physics ...

In a study published March 11 in the scientific journal Physical Review Letters, two researchers applied quantum mechanics to ...

Quantum mechanics is used to propose that black hole singularities could be the start of a new phase, rather than a point of destruction.

Often seen as destructive, supermassive black holes could help sustain life under specific conditions, scientists have found.

Black holes have such extreme gravity that not even light can escape. They have been caught shredding entire stars and can even devour other black holes. And now, one scientist thinks there’s a chance ...

Black holes have been fascinating subjects of study, not just because they are cosmic vacuum cleaners, but also as engines of immense power capable of extracting and redistributing energy on a ...

"I think that the simplest explanation of the rotating universe is the universe was born in a rotating black hole." Without a doubt, since its launch, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST ...

It is a terrifying scenario straight out of science fiction. So, what would happen if you were struck by a primordial black hole? We already know that coming into contact with a stellar-mass ...

"The higher the spin, the more energy the black hole can release." Black holes may leak more energy to their surroundings than previously suspected — and the faster these voids spin, the more ...

Feb. 19, 2025 — Within the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument's early data, scientists have uncovered the largest samples ever of intermediate-mass black holes and dwarf galaxies hosting an ...

A rare collision between two supermassive black holes (SMBH) appears to have sent the resulting merger speeding through the universe, making it one of the fastest-moving black holes we have ever seen.
