When scientists mathematically calculate the area that surrounds a black hole in space without factoring in the mass that exists inside its event horizon, they “create” a theoretical white hole.

Black holes are points in space that are so dense they create deep gravity sinks. Beyond a certain region, not even light can escape the powerful tug of a black hole's gravity. And anything that ...

For years, physicists like me have been looking to prove that black holes are more complex than they seem. And a newly ...

Supermassive black holes, on the other hand, have masses equivalent to millions, or even billions, of suns crammed into a space no more than a few billion miles wide. For context, the solar system ...

The study, published in the Monthly Notices of the Astronomical Society, focused on smaller black holes relatively close to Earth, using X-ray data gathered from space-based telescopes.

The moment creates a beautiful sight in simulations of how space works. In stellar clusters - groups of stars that can contain as few as a dozen to as many as millions - binary black holes can ...
