JWST Reveals Stunning New Details About M87’s Supermassive Black Hole Jet
Recent images captured by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) are the clearest ever pictures of the jet arriving from the massive black hole in the galaxy named Messier 87 (M87). There are clear details in the image shot by the telescope, which show the change of brightness, shape and the jet that is usually in disguise. As per scientists, this d...

Canadian Astrophotographer Captures Stunning Sunflower Galaxy from Ontario
Astrophotographer Ronald Brecher has captured a magnificent image of Messier 63, famously known as the Sunflower Galaxy, from his backyard observatory in Guelph, Ontario. With over 13 hours of exposures taken using a Celestron 14" EDGE HD telescope and advanced imaging filters, the spiral galaxy’s fragmented arms and bright core are revealed in s...

M87 Black Hole: Turbulent Plasma Dynamics and Feeding Process Revealed
M87*, the supermassive black hole in Messier 87, continues to captivate astronomers. EHT observations from 2017 and 2018 revealed turbulence in the accretion flow, with the plasma ring’s brightest region shifting due to gas dynamics. The study also uncovered a counter-rotating gas spiral feeding mechanism, refining understanding of black hole fee...

'Completely Invisible, Yet Unbelievably Influential': NASA Explains How Spiral Galaxies Get Their Shape
NASA has shared a stunning photograph on Instagram of a galaxy called M77, and has offered a brief explanation of how it has been “shaped.” For a long time, the shapes of many galaxies, including our own Milky Way, have puzzled many scientists. The Milky Way is spiral-shaped and has arms full of stars. However, have you ever wondered how it got...
