NASA has captured the astronomical event, called a Tidal Disruption Event (TDE), using its Hubble Space Telescope.

"Undoubtedly the most spectacular aspect of our long term study is that it has delivered what is now considered to be the best empirical evidence that super-massive black holes do really exist ...

A monstrous black hole in a distant galaxy has earned itself a nickname worthy of a science-fiction horror movie for its gluttonous feasting on any stars that dare get near. Meet "Space Jaws.

Now, using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers may have cracked this puzzle, finding the first evidence of a supermassive black hole at the heart of M83, also known as NGC 5236, a ...

Astronomers using NASA telescopes have found 'Space Jaws' - a wandering, supermassive black hole. What's more, an accompanying telescope also revealed that the black hole is offset from the centre ...

In November 2024, astronomers using JWST reported that they'd found a ... conditions, a black hole can continue to accrete matter beyond this limit — a process known as super-Eddington accretion.

"For years, astronomers have searched for a black hole in M83 without success." Scientists have long believed that monster-sized supermassive black holes lurk at the heart of all large galaxies.
