New Theory Challenges Black Hole Singularities, But Critics Raise Red Flags
A new black hole theory proposes a fix to the long-standing singularity paradox by modifying gravity equations. But scientists like Nikodem Poplawski argue that the model lacks observational support and rests on speculative assumptions. He suggests future data from gravitational waves or the cosmic microwave background may one day help us uncover t...

NASA Solves Black Hole Jet X-ray Mystery with IXPE’s Polarization Powers
NASA’s IXPE satellite may have solved a longstanding astrophysical mystery: how are X-rays produced in the extreme jets of supermassive black holes? By observing the blazar BL Lacertae, IXPE recorded low X-ray polarization versus very high optical polarization—confirming Compton scattering as the likely mechanism. This breakthrough supports the...

Hydrogen Gas Cloud Might Help Solve the Mystery of Missing Non-Dark Matter of the Universe
Ionized Hydrogen gas cloud is believed to have the missing matter of the universe, said scientists. This discovery, conducted by DESI, changed the perspective of black hole theory and is believed to switch on and off at its duty cycle. The scientists will further use new measurements in the existing models of the Universe.

New Black Hole Theory Challenges Singularity: What You Need to Know
A new study has put forward a black hole model that eliminates the central singularity, a concept that has long troubled physicists. Researchers suggest modifying Einstein’s field equations to prevent mathematical values from reaching infinity at a black hole’s core. This approach could reshape our understanding of gravity, black holes, and eve...

Black Hole Singularities May Not Exist, Say Scientists
A new study questions the existence of black hole singularities, suggesting refinements to Einstein’s equations using quantum gravity concepts. Researchers argue that infinite density points may not be real, replacing them with highly curved but finite regions of space-time. While direct observation remains difficult, gravitational waves and earl...
