EINSTEIN BLACK HOLES
What’s really hiding around Einstein’s black holes? Scientists find a new gravitational wave clue, a ringing sound that could expose their mysterious ‘hair’Scientists are exploring subtle changes in black hole ringdown signals. These gravitational wave echoes could reveal surrounding matter or ...
Science says black holes don’t actually suck everything around them: Here’s what really happensBlack Holes are called black because light cannot escape from inside their event horizons. Astronomers nevertheless detect black holes indi...
In 1976, a theoretical physicist pushed Caltech toward building a machine to detect Einstein’s gravitational waves - 39 years later, black-hole-hunting LIGO heard their ripples, and by 2017, the Interstellar science adviser wept before the man who predicted them while receiving the Nobel PrizeKip Thorne, an illustrious physicist, chased the elusive gravitational waves predicted by Einstein for many years. His commitment yielded t...
In 1905, Einstein unlocked a mystery of light that seemed almost impossible, unknowingly laying the foundation for smartphone cameras, solar panels, burglar alarms and technologies yet to comeAlbert Einstein explained the photoelectric effect in 1905. This interaction of light and matter powers many modern devices. His theory rev...
Before Stephen Hawking conquered the world of astrophysics, he was a constant source of worry to his father Frank: 'He has little...'Before Stephen Hawking established himself as a legendary name in the field of astrophysics, cosmology, he was a bright student at Oxford. ...
Quote of the Day by Bernhard Riemann: "If only I had the theorems..." — Inspiring life lessons from the renowned German mathematician on curiosity, discovery, innovation, and why great ideas come before perfect answersQuote of the Day by Bernhard Riemann: "If only I had the theorems! Then I should find the proofs easily enough." One remarkable thought fro...
NASA looked back at the first Black Hole ever photographed, and found a big surpriseThe universe keeps reshaping our cosmic perspective. When the Event Horizon Telescope captured the historic first image of a black hole in ...
Researchers finally found evidence from a region in Space where nothing is supposed to escapeA historic black hole discovery is changing how scientists explore the universe. Researchers have detected possible fingerprints of a black...
For the first time, researchers reached a region near a Black Hole once beyond studyA powerful black hole collision has opened a new chapter in space science. Scientists used the loudest gravitational wave signal ever detec...
Einstein Probe discovers mysterious cosmic explosion unlike anything astronomers have seen beforeA peculiar cosmic event, dubbed EP240305a, has baffled astronomers with its rapid X-ray fade and lingering radio signals. Detected by China...
What Happens to Time at the Edge of a Black Hole?Near black holes, gravity warps spacetime, causing time to slow dramatically for distant observers. An object falling in appears to freeze ...
A black hole event has revealed a truth physicists long suspected: Einstein and Hawking were rightScientists have confirmed century-old predictions by Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking after observing two black holes colliding about a ...
Scientists discover mysterious black hole roaming alone in the Milky Way. Here's why it is so surprisingAstronomers have detected a lone black hole drifting through the Milky Way—an unprecedented discovery made possible by gravitational lensin...
Finally, Mathematical evidence for stability of black holeGiorgi, Klainerman, and Szeftel questioned whether a black hole encountering gravitational waves might result in a resonance-like phenomeno...
Curious Kids: Can black holes become white holes?White holes are really just something scientists have imagined - they could exist, but we've never seen one, or even seen clues that one ma...
Wonder how black holes are formed? The universe has an exotic way of doing soAstrophysicist Dr Karan Jani is convinced that finding the first-formed black holes can give real clues about the universe.
Simplifying black holes, debunking information paradox: Stephen Hawking’s biggest contributions to scienceOn his birth anniversary, we take a look back at some of Hawking’s biggest accomplishments.
