The first moving images of a black hole could reveal swirls of plasma and collapsing stars, deepening our understanding of ...

What makes the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) so special? In this video, we explore how the EHT managed to capture the first-ever image of a black hole, located at the center of the M87 galaxy, 55 ...

Plotting the location of Hubble Space Telescope observations of novae – exploding stars – in the giant elliptical galaxy M87. The galaxy’s most notable feature is a 3,000-light-year-long jet ...

The M87 galaxy is monstrous. It contains several trillions of stars, compared to our Milky Way's hundreds of billions. And the supermassive black hole at its center is shooting an outstretched ...

A study of the galaxy M87 showed that nova explosions appear to be occurring at an unusual high frequency in the neighborhood of one of the jets from the galaxy's central black hole. But there's ...

That’s what’s happening in the center of M87, a giant elliptical galaxy about 50 million light-years from Earth that has a spike of light shooting from its core. The galaxy harbors a black ...

This is an artist's concept looking down into the core of the giant elliptical galaxy M87. A supermassive black hole ejects a 3,000-light-year-long jet of plasma, traveling at nearly the speed of ...

In a surprising discovery, astronomers have found that the intense plasma jet from the supermassive black hole in galaxy M87 might be causing nearby stars to explode more frequently. Hubble Space ...

The James Webb Space Telescope has spotted the earliest supermassive black hole-driven quasar wind ever seen, pushing away ...

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has revealed a massive plasma jet erupting from the supermassive black hole at the center of galaxy M87. This “blow-torch”-like jet, traveling near the speed of ...

Jet Set Black holes are some of the most destructive objects in the universe — but it's not just their terrifying gravity you ...
