Black Hole Tears Star Apart, Sends Out Powerful Flares Six Months Later
Astronomers detected a black hole 650 million light-years away devouring a star and then erupting twice with powerful flares months later. Observed by the Zwicky Transient Facility and tracked by ALMA and the VLA, this rare off-centre event hints at a rogue black hole cast out from its host galaxy.

Hubble Captures First-Ever Rogue Black Hole Devouring a Star Outside Galactic Core
Astronomers led by Dr. Yuhan Yao have discovered the first offset tidal disruption event (TDE), where a rogue black hole outside a galaxy's core ripped apart a star. Spotted by the Hubble telescope and Zwicky Transient Facility, this marks historic evidence of a wandering supermassive black hole in action.

Two Black Holes With Unusual Behaviour Disrupt Traditional Theories About Their Formation
Astronomers are observing two unique black holes defying established cosmic theories. One, known as the "serial killer" black hole, is preparing to consume its second star in five years, an event that rarely occurs within such a timeframe. The other black hole, part of a triple system called V404 Cygni, has a structure that defies traditional black...

Neutron Star Becomes Heaviest Celestial Object With 2.35 Times Mass of Sun
Researchers have recently observed a collapsed dense neutron star shredding and devouring its stellar companion to become one of the heaviest neutron stars ever spotted. The star has a mass 2.35 times that of the Sun and spins at a speed of 707 rounds per second. The finding may now give astronomers an insight into the weird quantum state of matter...

New Look at First Black Hole Detected Shows It Is 50 Percent Bigger Than Expected
A fresh examination has revealed new details about the first black hole ever detected – that was spotted in 1964 and became the subject of a friendly wager between renowned scientists – including that it is bigger than previously known.
