Fast-Moving Stars Confirm Supermassive Black Hole in Nearby Galaxy

Astronomers have found strong evidence of a supermassive black hole inside the Large Magellanic Cloud, a small galaxy near the Milky Way. This discovery, based on the movement of hypervelocity stars, suggests that the galaxy has a hidden black hole at its core. Scientists have long suspected its presence, but this is the first direct …

‘Daredevil’ White Dwarf Star Orbiting a Supermassive Black Hole

A daring white dwarf star may be teetering on the edge of a supermassive black hole, creating a cosmic spectacle that has left scientists astonished. Researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have observed unprecedented behavior in the black hole 1ES 1927+654, located 270 million light-years from Earth. The discovery, made using the XMM-Newton …

James Webb Uncovers How Supermassive Black Holes

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has revealed how supermassive black holes (SMBHs) suppress star formation, influencing the growth of massive galaxies. Observing a galaxy cluster 11 billion light-years away, researchers confirmed that SMBHs halt star formation in massive galaxies, paving the way for the formation of giant elliptical galaxies seen today. Unlocking the Mystery …
