A team of researchers has succeeded in recreating for the first time in a laboratory experiment a phenomenon that until now only existed as a theory in the realm of black holes. The experiment demonstrates that the rotation of an object can exponentially amplify electromagnetic waves, mimicking the behavior of a black hole bomb, a […]

Black Holes Do Not Represent the End of Time, but the Beginning of White Holes: A Revolutionary Theory May Change Our View of the Universe
Our conception of time, black holes, and dark energy may be on the verge of a radical transformation thanks to an innovative study conducted by the University of Sheffield. This new research proposes that black holes could evolve into “white holes,” a theoretical concept that challenges our current notions of cosmic physics and the very […]
Most Galaxies Have Been Observed to Rotate in the Same Direction: The Entire Universe Could Be the Interior of a Colossal Black Hole
Since its launch a little over three years ago, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has revolutionized our understanding of the cosmos, providing images of unprecedented clarity and uncovering mysteries that challenge our theories about the origin and evolution of the universe. A recent study conducted by Lior Shamir, a researcher at Kansas State University and […]
A Cosmic Light Show at the Heart of the Milky Way: Scientists Discover the Black Hole at the Center of the Galaxy Emits Constant Flares
The supermassive black hole located at the center of our galaxy, Sagittarius A*, appears to be putting on a true light show, resembling a cosmic nightclub. Thanks to observations made with NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, a team of astrophysicists has captured the most extensive and detailed view to date of this colossal celestial object. […]
Tiny Black Holes Created at the Beginning of the Universe Could Be Hiding in Hollow Planets, Rocks, and Ancient Buildings on Earth
Black holes result from the collapse of massive stars after they exhaust their fuel, creating regions of spacetime where not even light can escape. However, new research suggests that the chaos of the early universe might have generated black holes much smaller than those commonly known, referred to as primordial black holes (PBHs). These tiny […]
Evidence Found that the Mysterious Dark Energy Driving the Expansion of the Universe is Created Inside Black Holes
In the earliest moments of the universe, nearly 14 billion years ago, a phenomenon both fascinating and mysterious occurred. At the very moment of the Big Bang, an unknown force triggered a rapid exponential expansion of the universe in its initial stage. This event, known as cosmic inflation, allowed for the creation of all the […]
A Supermassive Black Hole Destroying Stars Solves the Mystery of Stellar Eruptions
A massive black hole has ripped apart a star, and now it’s using the remnants of that star to impact another nearby star or possibly a smaller black hole that was once safe from harm. This discovery, made through NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory and other telescopes, helps astronomers connect two previously separate mysteries by offering […]
Astronomers Discover Galaxy Being Devoured by a Supermassive Black Hole
A team of international researchers, co-led by the University of Cambridge, has used the powerful James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to observe a galaxy from the early universe that is undergoing a dramatic transformation. Approximately the size of the Milky Way, this galaxy exists around two billion years after the Big Bang and hosts a […]
Evidence Found for the Origin of Sagittarius A*, the Black Hole at the Center of the Milky Way
Supermassive black holes, celestial objects with masses greater than a million times that of the Sun, remain one of the greatest enigmas of the cosmos. These dark giants, located at the center of most galaxies, have an origin that has intrigued scientists for decades. Now, a team of researchers from the University of Nevada, Las […]
Two of the Hundreds of Known Black Holes in the Universe Emit a Pulse, and Scientists Now Know Why
An international team of astronomers has detected variability, a pulse, in the behavior of the black hole IGR J17091-3624. This phenomenon, nicknamed a heartbeat, has been observed using data from the NICER and NuSTAR space observatories and could offer new insights into the complex processes occurring near these enigmatic cosmic objects. The study, led by […]
