NASA Spots Starquakes in a Red Giant Orbiting One of the Galaxy’s Quietest Black Holes
A red giant star orbiting a quiet black hole spins faster than expected, while internal vibrations reveal it is younger than its ancient chemistry suggests. These findings hint at a past stellar merger and challenge existing models of star evolution in low-metal environments. Future observations aim to confirm its complex cosmic history.

Hubble Captures Gas Escaping Sideways Spiral Galaxy NGC 4388 in Virgo Cluster
Hubble has captured a glowing plume of gas escaping the spiral galaxy NGC 4388 in the Virgo cluster. Moving through hot intracluster gas, the galaxy sheds material, partially energised by its central black hole. Multi-wavelength observations reveal the impact of both environmental forces and central activity on galaxy evolution.

Astronomers Observe Black Hole Twisting Spacetime for the First Time, Confirming Einstein’s Theory
Astronomers have directly observed a black hole twisting spacetime for the first time, confirming Einstein’s long-standing prediction. The effect was detected during a violent stellar destruction event, where repeating X-ray and radio signals revealed a slow cosmic wobble. The discovery provides new insight into black hole spin, jets, and extreme...

James Webb Confirms First Runaway Supermassive Black Hole Rocking Through Space
The James Webb Space Telescope has confirmed the first runaway supermassive black hole, moving at 2.2 million mph through the Cosmic Owl galaxies. Pushing a galaxy-sized shockwave and leaving a long trail of star-forming gas, this discovery confirms long-standing theories about black hole ejections and opens the door to finding more cosmic speedste...

NASA's IXPE Solves Long-Standing Mystery Behind Black Hole Jets
NASA's IXPE mission has identified how X-rays are produced in the jet of a supermassive black hole, confirming that they originate from the same jet through synchrotron self-Compton scattering and resolving a long-standing question in X-ray astronomy

Poco M8 Series Design, Colourways Spotted in Leaked Renders; Could Feature a Redesigned Camera Module
Poco M8 Pro and Poco M8 could be launched soon by the Xiaomi sub-brand, as the phones have already visited multiple certification websites. Now, the renders of the handsets have surfaced online, revealing their design and colourways. The two phones could be offered in three colourways. The company could equip them with redesigned squircle-shaped ca...

Bondi Beach Attack Suspects Were In Philippines Hotel, Left A Tip On Way Out
The father-and-son duo alleged to have gunned down 15 people on Australia's Bondi Beach holed themselves up in a Philippines hotel for weeks and left a tip on their way out, staff told AFP Thursday.

Motorola Signature Phone Design, Colourways Spotted in Renders That Match Motorola Edge 70 Ultra
Motorola Edge 70 was recently launched in India and recent reports suggested the smartphone maker could be preparing to unveil an Ultra model. However, a tipster has now leaked images of the company's next phone, which could arrive as the Motorola Signature. The leaked images suggest that the phone could sport a redesigned square-shaped rear camera...

James Webb Telescope Finds Evidence Of Giant "Dinosaur" Stars From Early Universe
The research also suggests that these massive stars transformed directly into black holes at the end of their lives without undergoing a supernova explosion.

NASA Uses 'X-arithmetic' to Show How Black Holes Shape Galaxy Clusters
NASA's Chandra telescope has used a novel "X-arithmetic" technique to analyse X-ray data from galaxy clusters, showing how supermassive black holes influence hot gas structures and offering new insights into cosmic evolution.

Chandra’s New X-Ray Mapping Exposes the Invisible Engines Powering Galaxy Clusters
NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory has released stunning colour-coded galaxy cluster images that reveal shock waves, cooling gas, and cavities carved by supermassive black holes. By separating X-ray light into different energy bands, astronomers can now visualise hidden cosmic processes that shape the universe’s largest structures and control how...

Honor X8d Listed on Retailer's Website With 7,000mAh Battery, 108-Megapixel Camera; Could Launch Soon
Honor X8d will be launched in select global markets with a 7,000mAh battery and 4G LTE connectivity, according to the phone's listing on an online retailer's platform in Kyrgyzstan. The handset is shown with a dual rear camera unit, which could be headlined by a 108-megapixel primary shooter and a 5-megapixel secondary camera. On the front, it coul...

Galaxy Collisions Found to Activate Supermassive Black Holes, Euclid Data Shows
Astronomers using ESA’s Euclid telescope and AI analysis have found that merging galaxies are significantly more likely to host active supermassive black holes. The gravitational chaos of a collision drives gas toward the galactic core, igniting AGN activity. This discovery strengthens the link between galaxy interactions and the energetic proces...
