In 2019, astronomers linked eight radio observatories spread across four continents into a single virtual telescope the size of Earth, and after two years of assembling five petabytes of recorded data by hand, the combined instrument produced the first-ever photograph of a black hole’s shadow.
2+ hour, 14+ min ago (27+ words) The Event Horizon Telescope isn’t really one telescope. It’s a case study in what happens when a scientific problem is too big for any single instrument to...
Dying radio galaxies fade faster than scientists expected
4+ hour, 7+ min ago (362+ words) Astronomers have identified a surprisingly young population of fading radio galaxies whose supermassive black holes have already switched off their powerful jets. The confirmed remnants range from about 8 to 42 million years old, suggesting many may disappear from view much faster…...
Dark matter detector finds a strange signal scientists can’t yet explain
7+ hour, 29+ min ago (586+ words) The LUX-ZEPLIN experiment has detected a rare particle interaction that looks unusually difficult to explain as ordinary background noise and appeared where dark matter might be expected. Scientists are not claiming a discovery yet, but additional data could show whether…...
Researchers Link Vacuum Viscosity To Relativistic Inertia
18+ hour, 36+ min ago (809+ words) Conflicting calculations previously predicted whether motion should generate viscous force on massive objects with charged internal components. Now, discrepancies between established physical frameworks have been resolved by identifying defects within conventional approaches and refining Newtonian dynamics using special relativity. This…...
Every 97 days, a Neptune-sized world looms above Kepler-36b, spanning roughly 2.5 times the apparent diameter of our full Moon. At closest approach, its gravity raises enormous tides that could flex the rocky planet beneath it.
9+ hour, 45+ min ago (758+ words) Kepler-36b and its Neptune-sized neighbour pass within about 1.9 million kilometres, creating a giant sky view and a powerful, changing tide across the rocky planet....
New Twist on the Einstein Problem Reveals Unexpected Physics
11+ hour, 23+ min ago (30+ words) Optical structures based on the Smith hat produced unusual light patterns that reflected their lack of mirror symmetry and changed with light direction and polarization....

Scientists Find a New Way To Hear the Faint “Ringing” of Black Holes
17+ hour, 17+ min ago (22+ words) A new method maps the subtle gravitational wave vibrations produced by merging black holes, potentially enabling more precise tests of general relativity....
JWST Captures Stunning Evidence of How Supermassive Black Holes Feed
17+ hour, 52+ min ago (325+ words) An international team using the JWST has found photographic evidence that brings astronomers closer to solving a long-standing mystery about black holes....
New Study Expands Search for "Dark Photons," a Leading Dark Matter Candidate
17+ hour, 44+ min ago (165+ words) Cross-disciplinary research at Perimeter Institute and University of Maryland shows that dark photons could be lurking in more places than previously thought....
