NASA researchers combined years of data and new imaging techniques to learn more about a "tipped over" black hole that is moving in an unexpected way. The black hole is located in a galaxy called ...

An international team of astronomers, led by the University of Cambridge, used the NASA/ESA/CSA James ... Such an ...

Supermassive black holes typically rotate with the galactic plane, expelling X-rays perpendicular to the plane itself. However, NASA recently discovered that galaxy NGC 5084—located 80 million ...

(NASA/CXC/SAO/D. Bogensberger et al.) It also has a very active supermassive black hole and is bursting with ... Even in this model, though, the V structure is hard to explain.

These findings refine existing models of black hole accretion and open new avenues for studying binary systems. The observations were a collaborative effort involving NASA’s Swift Observatory ...

the information about a black hole can be encoded on its boundary (the event horizon), similar to how a hologram contains 3D information in a 2D image. The results from the model suggest that when ...

NASA researchers have discovered a perplexing case of a black hole that appears to be "tipped over," rotating in an unexpected direction relative to the galaxy surrounding it. That galaxy ...

NASA's X-ray space telescope Chandra spotted the cosmic collision from the supermassive black hole at the heart of the galaxy Centaurus A. Astronomers using NASA's Chandra X-ray space telescope ...

It's called Centaurus A, and huge jets of plasma shooting from its central supermassive black hole have slammed into something as they ... Astronomers deployed NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory to take ...

Supermassive black holes typically rotate with the galactic plane, expelling X-rays perpendicular to the plane itself. However, NASA recently discovered that galaxy NGC 5084—located 80 million ...
