When stars cease to fuse hydrogen at the end of their lifetime, they collapse in on themselves, condensing into a ...

There just might be a way for white holes to form in the Universe. According to a new, highly theoretical paper, the ...

New research suggests black holes may transition into 'white holes', ejecting matter and potentially even time back into the universe, defying our current understanding of these cosmic giants. New ...

Albert Einstein’s theory of gravity, general relativity, is famously incomplete. As proven by physics Nobel laureate Roger Penrose, when matter collapses under its own gravitational pull, the result ...

A new study suggests that a black hole singularity—where time and matter are condensed into infinitely small space—could be a transition to a beginning. This beginning is a white hole—a theoretical ...

New research suggests that black holes may actually be "frozen stars," bizarre quantum objects that lack a singularity and an event horizon, potentially solving some of the biggest paradoxes in black ...

Black holes, once considered mere mathematical curiosities, have evolved into a central theme in modern astrophysics. Their study not only illuminates the frontiers of gravitational physics but also ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. At the beginning of time and the center of every black hole lies a point of infinite density called a singularity. To explore these ...

Penrose proved black holes a consequence of Einstein theory Genzel and Ghez discovered black hole at heart of Milky Way American Ghez becomes fourth woman to win Physics prize The centre of black ...

We’ve never seen a TDE in the Milky Way, but we’ve seen them in distant galaxies. If you track the motion of individual stars in the ultra-dense star cluster at the very center of the Milky Way you’ll ...

Talk about epic. A collision of two black holes is so extreme that it’s challenging physics theories of how large black holes form and merge. The two black holes had masses bigger than any before ...
