Black Hole Kicked Away? Gravitational Waves Reveal Einstein’s Ripples in Spacetime
Astronomers have, for the first time, measured the recoil speed and direction of a newborn black hole using gravitational waves. Data from the 2019 event GW190412 revealed the remnant shot away at 50 km/s. This breakthrough shows gravitational waves can reconstruct full 3D motion, offering new ways to connect black hole mergers with light signals.

New Black Hole Merger Gives Clearest Test of Einstein’s Relativity
LIGO has detected GW250114, the loudest gravitational-wave signal yet, marking ten years since its first breakthrough. The event confirmed Einstein’s relativity, Hawking’s horizon theorem, and Kerr’s spinning black hole model. By capturing the merger of two 32-solar-mass black holes, scientists gained the clearest view of black hole physics, ...

Merger Talks Gain Pace As NDPP Urges Neiphiu Rio To Return To "Political Home"
As the ruling Nationalist Democratic Progressive Party and Naga People's Front possibly inch closer to a merger, the latter's chief Apong Pongener has offered to resign to make way for Nagaland Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio to take over the post.

Astronomers Discover Stellar Graveyard Filled With Black Hole and Neutron Star Collisions
Astronomers using LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA detected 128 collisions of black holes and neutron stars, including two rare mixed mergers that double previous records. These findings reveal new details of stellar evolution, refine Hubble constant estimates, and test Einstein’s relativity in extreme conditions. The cosmic “graveyard” offers fresh insight ...

Hubble Discovers White Dwarf Merger Remnant with Unusual Carbon Signature
An international team of astronomers has discovered WD 0525+526, an unusual white dwarf about 128 light-years away, using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. Unlike typical white dwarfs, this star formed through a stellar merger and shows an unexpectedly high carbon content. With a mass of 1.2 Suns and a scorching surface temperature of 21,000 K, the ...

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...
