Study Suggests Primordial Black Hole Burst as Source of Detected High-Energy Neutrino
A groundbreaking MIT study suggests that a primordial black hole explosion may have produced the most energetic neutrino ever detected. Researchers argue that as these ancient black holes shrink through Hawking radiation, they eventually explode, sending out powerful particles.

Tiny Red Dots Spotted By NASA’s James Webb Telescope Could Be Black Hole Stars
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope revealed mysterious “little red dots” that seem too bright and mature for their age. A new study suggests they may be black hole stars—giant hydrogen spheres powered by black holes—helping explain the rapid growth of early supermassive black holes.

Could a Planet Exist Without a Host Star? Astronomers Say Rogue Worlds May Roam Freely
Astronomers have discovered that planets can survive without stars, drifting as rogue or hypervelocity worlds. Some are flung into space by black holes, while others are displaced by gas giants. On some of these rogue worlds, the idea goes, there might be oceans beneath icy crusts, where life, at least life at a microbe level, could exist.

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...

Twisted Jet Confirms Most Extreme Binary Black Hole System in the Universe
Astronomers have confirmed that the blazar OJ 287 hosts the most extreme binary black hole system ever found. Using a global radio telescope array, they captured an ultra-sharp image showing a dramatically bent jet—evidence of two supermassive black holes locked in orbit. The system’s 12-year flare cycle and jet twists match predictions of a sm...

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 ...

James Webb Telescope Spots Rare ‘Cosmic Owl’ Formed by Colliding Galaxies
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has unveiled the “Cosmic Owl,” a jaw-dropping image of two colliding ring galaxies forming a structure that resembles an owl’s face. This double-ring formation is extraordinarily rare, and the event is shedding light on galaxy evolution, black hole dynamics, and rapid star formation. Led by Ph.D. student Mi...

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 ...

Most Distant Mini-Halo Discovered in Galaxy Cluster 10 Billion Light-Years Away
Astronomers have uncovered the most distant mini-halo ever detected, located around the galaxy cluster SpARCS1049, a staggering 10 billion light-years from Earth. Using the LOFAR radio telescope network, which spans eight European countries, researchers detected a faint, diffuse glow—evidence of a giant cloud of high-energy particles and magnetic...

NASA Chandra Spots Distant X-Ray Jet; Telescope Faces Major Budget Cuts
NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory has detected a massive X-ray jet from quasar J1610+1811, 11.6 billion light-years away. The jet travels at nearly the speed of light, illuminating black hole behavior during the universe’s early era. However, Chandra now faces potential defunding under NASA’s proposed budget. Astronomers warn that cutting Chan...

Webb Telescope Uncovers Hidden Active Galactic Nuclei
The cosmic mystery of how quasars and Little Red Dots relate may soon be solved, thanks to new research using the James Webb Space Telescope. A study published on May 7, 2025, in arXiv reveals a population of dust-obscured supermassive black holes in the early universe.

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.

New Study Uncovers Shadowy Origins of Universe’s Most Luminous Phenomena
NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has revealed that some of the universe’s brightest light sources originate near supermassive black holes in galaxy centres. These active galactic nuclei emit intense radiation, including gamma rays and X-rays, despite black holes themselves being invisible. Their powerful jets and high-energy emissions cha...

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...
