Two supermassive "black holes" are found in galaxies near the Earth. These had been discovered with the use of NASA's space-based telescope the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array.
The galaxy EGS8p7 is 13.2 billion years old. Its discovery could get scientists to rethink theories explaining early universe post Big Bang.
A new study claims that energy from galaxies is just about half as much as it was two billion years ago, indicating that the universe is ageing and will eventually exhaust all energy within.
Discovery of five supermassive black holes recently has led astronomers to believe that there could be millions of them across the universe.
The black hole powering NGC 1097 is 140 million times the mass of sun. Researchers used distribution and movement two molecules to estimate the mass of the black hole.
Using the Hubble Telescope, astronomers were associated plasma jet emissions from galactic cores to merger of black holes.
Using metal levels in live and dead galaxies, researchers were able to conclude how long it takes for a galaxy to run of star-making fuel hydrogen.
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has shown that Andromeda's halo is larger than earlier estimated.
EGS-zs8-1 is the oldest and farthest galaxy that scientists have ever come across.
The new study shows that planet-forming dust is resultant of supernovas.
The dwarf galaxy showed higher than normal gamma ray activity that has researchers intrigued.
A new study found the link between dark matter and black hole is stronger than the black hole-visible matter link.
