Supermassive black holes appear to be present at the center of every galaxy, dating back to some of the earliest galaxies in the universe. And we have no idea how they got there. It shouldn’t be possible for them to grow from supernova remnants to supermassive sizes so quickly. And we are not aware of … Read more

Credit: Robert Lea Astronomers believe that at the heart of most, if not all, galaxies lies a gigantic black hole with a mass millions or even billions of times greater than that of our Sun. These supermassive black … Read more
We’ve just seen concrete confirmation that galaxies could collide and grow in the early universe. Scientists have finally discovered two blazing quasars – galaxies powered by supermassive black holes – that merged into the Cosmic Dawn just 900 million years after the Big Bang. It is the first colliding quasar pair we have found in … Read more

A binary black hole system in an active galaxy about 4 billion light-years away has been seen to brighten dramatically as one of the black holes plowed through the accretion disk of the other, briefly creating a double quasar. A quasar is the extremely active core of a distant galaxy. This activity is the product … Read more
Black Myth: Wukong is an action role-playing game that closely follows the events of Wu Cheng’en’s seminal novel Travel west. The work, based on Chinese mythology and Buddhist folklore, follows a monk who encounters a spirit named Sun Wukong, also known as Monkey King, during his search for sacred religious texts.

The upcoming Roman space telescope could reveal a new class of ‘feather-light’ black holes, challenging existing theories of black hole formation. If these Earth-sized black holes are found, they could have significant implications for our knowledge of the early universe and the nature of dark matter.
