NASA’s James Webb Telescope May Have Found First Black Hole Star, Known as ‘The Cliff’
JWST detected “The Cliff,” a candidate black hole star with a black hole core wrapped in a luminous gas shell. This discovery offers insights into black hole formation, stellar evolution, and cosmic dynamics, prompting astronomers to search for similar objects across the universe.

NASA’s Chandra Finds Black Hole Growing Beyond Known Limits
A black hole in quasar RACS J0320-35, 12.8 billion light-years away, is growing 2.4 times faster than theory permits. Chandra’s discovery challenges ideas of how supermassive black holes formed so soon after the Big Bang.

Astronomers Predict 90 Percent Chance of Spotting an Exploding Black Hole in Next Decade
Astronomers now predict a 90% chance of detecting an exploding primordial black hole within a decade. Such an event would confirm Stephen Hawking’s theory that black holes evaporate, releasing a flash of radiation and exotic particles. Detecting one would revolutionize physics and rewrite our understanding of the universe.

Scientists Apply Stephen Hawking's Theory to Propose Detectable ‘Black Hole Morsels’ in Space
A new study suggests “black hole morsels” — tiny, asteroid-sized black holes from cosmic mergers — could emit detectable bursts of Hawking radiation. Observatories like HESS, HAWC, and Fermi may already hold clues. Detecting them could unlock insights into quantum gravity, unknown particles, and even hidden dimensions beyond the Standard Mo...

Astronomers Observe Rare Supernova–Black Hole Interaction in Early Stages
In a groundbreaking discovery, astronomers observed SN 2023zkd, a supernova that may have been triggered by close interaction with a black hole. Featuring unusual brightness peaks and extended pre-explosion activity, the event offers new insights into star black hole dynamics. Real-time AI detection played a key role, and upcoming surveys promise t...

NASA’s IXPE Challenges Theories on Black Hole Corona and Polarised X-Ray Emissions
NASA’s Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) has made surprising observations in a black hole binary system, detecting a high degree of X-ray polarisation that challenges current models of corona structure and accretion discs. In X-ray binaries, black holes pull matter from nearby stars, forming hot accretion discs and coronas.

Dark Matter Theories Suggest Hidden Mirror World and Origins at the Edge of the Universe
Two new studies from UC Santa Cruz propose that dark matter may have originated from a hidden mirror world or been radiated into existence by the universe’s expanding cosmic horizon. These theories, rooted in established physics, challenge traditional models and suggest dark matter could exist without interacting with ordinary matter, redefining ...

Mysterious Planet Nine May Still Lurk in the Outer Solar System
Astronomers have long speculated about a hidden planet—Planet Nine—lurking beyond Neptune. First proposed in 2016, the theory explains the strange orbits of distant Kuiper Belt objects through the gravitational pull of a massive, unseen world. Caltech researchers remain confident, while others suggest alternatives like debris rings or even a bl...

Very Massive Stars Blow Away Outer Layers in Powerful Winds Before Black Hole Collapse
Massive stars may lose much more mass than expected before collapsing into black holes. A new study reveals that their powerful stellar winds strip outer layers early, reshaping theories of star evolution, black hole formation, and gravitational wave events. This research challenges previous models and helps explain observed features of stars like ...

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...

New Study Suggests Universe Will End Sooner Than Previously Thought
The universe is decaying much faster than thought. This is shown by calculations of three Dutch scientists on the so-called Hawking radiation.

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.
