Impossible Neutrino Detected on Earth May Come From an Exploding Primordial Black Hole
A mysterious neutrino detected in 2023 may be debris from an exploding primordial black hole. Scientists say the ultra-energetic particle defies known cosmic sources and could represent Hawking radiation, offering rare insight into early-universe physics and the possible nature of dark matter while challenging theories of black holes and cosmology.

JWST Uncovers the Origins of the Universe’s First Supermassive Black Holes
James Webb Space Telescope observations reveal that the earliest supermassive black holes formed from massive gas clouds collapsing directly into heavy seeds. This process bypassed normal star formation, allowing black holes to reach millions of solar masses within just 200–500 million years after the Big Bang, solving a long-standing cosmic myst...

Hypothetical ‘Dark Stars’ Could Rewrite Early Cosmic History, Research Suggests
Hypothetical dark stars could explain three early universe mysteries: the abundance of supermassive black holes, dense blue monster galaxies, and compact little red dots. Powered by dark matter rather than fusion, these stars may have formed before normal stars, collapsing to create black hole seeds and influencing early galaxy observations, accord...

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope Might Have Spotted Hidden Supermassive Black Holes
Mysterious “little red dots” spotted by the James Webb Space Telescope may not be tiny galaxies after all. A new study suggests they are supermassive black holes wrapped in dense gas and dust, perfectly disguised in the early universe and shining intensely in infrared light.

Astronomers Find ‘Dark Object’ 11 Billion Light-Years Away Through Gravity
Astronomers have observed a completely dark mysterious object, which is approximately a million times more massive than the mass of the Sun. It is found about 11 billion light-years distant and was identified in 2025 through its gravitational impact on the light of a background galaxy. This renders it the farthest object ever to have been observed ...

Researchers Found Mysterious Objects That Could Be "Dark Stars"
In smaller dark stars, when their dark matter runs out, normal nuclear fusion can begin, and they gradually become normal stars.

New Telescope Data Deepens the Mystery of How Fast the Universe Is Expanding
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope’s final polarisation maps reinforce the long-standing Hubble tension, confirming a slower early-universe expansion rate similar to Planck’s findings. By ruling out several proposed fixes, the new data intensifies the mystery and suggests current cosmological models may be missing key physics.

Study Reveals The Mystery Behind Giant Radio Relics In The Universe
Based on these initial findings, the team further developed extremely high-resolution simulations called "shock-tubes."

Scientists Recreate Cosmic ‘Fireballs’ in Lab to Solve Mystery of Missing Gamma Rays
Scientists recreated cosmic plasma beams at CERN to study why certain gamma rays vanish in space. The results showed the beams remain stable, suggesting ancient intergalactic magnetic fields, not beam collapse, hide the signals. The discovery provides new insight into cosmic jets and the universe’s earliest magnetic traces.

Ghostly Neutrinos May Hold the Answer to Why Matter Exists in Our Universe
In a breakthrough study, scientists merged data from Japan’s T2K and the U.S. NOvA neutrino experiments to explore why matter exists in the universe. The findings improve measurements of neutrino behavior and may help reveal whether these particles break symmetry with antimatter, offering vital clues to how the universe survived after the Big Ban...
