BLACK HOLE JETS
A black hole destroys a star, then fires off a powerful jet years later — scientists discover the 'burping' feeding pattern behind these cosmic outburstsScientists have found a new trend in black hole feeding patterns. Powerful jets emerge during two distinct phases of a black hole's feeding...- 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 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...
- In 1967, US satellites searching for nuclear tests detected mysterious flashes from space. Decades later, scientists uncovered secrets of gamma-ray bursts, which can release more energy in 10 seconds than Sun will emit over its entire 10-billion-year lifetimeGamma-ray bursts, first detected accidentally in 1967, have long puzzled astronomers. Recent observations of their afterglows are now chall...
