May 6, 2024 · Now, thanks to a new, immersive visualization produced on a NASA supercomputer, viewers can plunge into the event horizon, a black hole’s point of no return. In this visualization of a flight toward a supermassive black hole, labels highlight many of the fascinating features produced by the effects of general relativity along the way.
Sep 17, 2024 · A team of astronomers from Stockholm University looked at later images of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field and found changes in brightness among some galaxies. These changes are attributed to black hole variability – like flickering holiday lights. The result is that they found more black holes in the early universe than has previously been reported.
