Could it be that early black holes were much more efficient at accreting gas than their modern counterparts? Or could the ...

The Hubble Space Telescope has stared deeper into a quasar than ever before, discovering "weird" features in its vicinity. Quasars are the superbright centers of active galaxies, and they're ...

A supermassive black hole that doesn't appear to be where we would expect seems to be travelling at more than a thousand ...

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope marks its 100,000th exposure, capturing a dazzling quasar 9 billion light-years away with a ...

The most massive black holes can cover galaxies with immense radiation. However, this need not be harmful for possible ...

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope marks its 100,000th exposure, capturing a dazzling quasar 9 billion light-years away with a ...

The evidence, collected over decades, shows the cosmic event taking place within a fiercely energetic object known as a quasar. Quasars are active cores of galaxies in which a supermassive black hole ...

A recent study using the James Webb Space Telescope has promoted the theory long held by certain astrophysicists that we live ...

Dr Wolf says the brighter the quasar, the faster the black hole is growing - and this one is a hungry cosmic hurricane, gobbling up the equivalent of one sun per day. "Many people have already ...

Previous observations using the Hubble Space Telescope revealed that the galaxy's quasar-an intense light source powered by a black hole- was not in its expected position. Further analysis of the ...

Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) typically sit at the centre ... Lastly, some astronomers think this UMBH might be the relic of a quasar — a bright, active galaxy core from the early universe ...
