Facing steep funding cuts, scientists propose using black holes as particle colliders instead of building new ones on Earth New calculations have revealed that the super-energetic jets produced by spinning black holes could be a source for elusive dark matter particles. LiveScience · Jun 3, 2025
What if the Big Bang wasn’t the beginning? Our research suggests it may have taken place inside a black hole The Big Bang is often described as the explosive birth of the universe – a singular moment when space, time and matter sprang into existence. But what if this was not the beginning at all? What if our universe emerged from something else – something more familiar and radical at… The Conversation · Jun 3, 2025

Space · May 30, 2025 Astronomers discover black hole ripping a star apart inside a galactic collision. 'It is a peculiar event' Astronomers have spotted a supermassive black hole ripping apart and devouring a star in colliding galaxies. It is only the second time a tidal disruption event has been seen in interacting galaxies.
LiveScience · May 27, 2025 World's first color images of black holes are on their way Astronomers with the Event Horizon Telescope have developed a new way to observe the radio sky at multiple frequencies, and it means we will soon be able to capture color images of supermassive black holes.
