NASA’s Chandra Spots Unexpectedly Strong Jet from Distant Black Hole at Cosmic Noon
- Wednesday June 11, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA’s Chandra telescope has spotted two powerful black hole jets from over 11.6 billion light-years away. Detected during the universe’s cosmic noon, these jets reveal rare high-speed behaviour boosted by Big Bang remnants. The findings, which factor in relativistic effects, shed new light on early black hole growth and will be published in Th...

Black Hole Mergers Explained: What Happens When Two Black Holes Collide in Space?
- Tuesday October 22, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Black hole mergers are among the most energetic events in space. Two black holes gradually lose energy through gravitational interactions, drawing them closer until their event horizons stretch and merge. Gravitational waves released during the process are some of the most powerful forces in the universe, with part of the black holes' mass converti...

Edge Of Spiral Galaxies Could Be Rife With Colliding Black Holes: Study
- Wednesday November 1, 2017
- World News | Press Trust of India
The outskirts of spiral galaxies like our own Milky Way could be crowded with colliding black holes of massive proportions and a prime location for hunting the sources of gravitational waves, a study led by an Indian origin researcher has found.

Gravitational Waves Form 10 Million Years After Black Holes Merge
- Tuesday September 6, 2016
- World News | Press Trust of India
Gravitational waves are formed around 10 million years after two galaxies collide and their central black holes merge - about 100 times faster than previously thought, a new study has found.

The Big Gravitational Waves Breakthrough: 10 Points We Can All Understand
- Friday February 12, 2016
- Cheat Sheet | Agencies
Over a billion years ago, two black holes collided and merged in space. The wobble they generated - gravitational waves - hurtled through space and was heard as a "chirp" on Earth in September.

But What Are Gravitational Waves?
- Thursday February 11, 2016
- World News | Agence France-Presse
In a landmark discovery for physics and astronomy, international scientists said Thursday they have glimpsed the first direct evidence of gravitational waves, or ripples in space-time, which Albert Einstein predicted a century ago. Here are 11 facts to help you understand this development:
