For years, scientists have theorized that some black holes could actually be wormholes, and a new study shows that this space-time mimicry could in fact be possible.

For the first time, physicists have observed a “black hole triple” in space.This new system is about 8,000 light years away from Earth and is made up of a central black hole that is in the act ...

RIVERSIDE, Calif. -- Supermassive black holes — with masses ranging from millions to billions of times that of our sun — sit at the centers of most large galaxies. Astronomers have observed ...

Astronomers have spotted a massive pair of jets releasing material from a distant black hole. The jets are so large they span about 140 Milky Way galaxies in length.
