The nearby Large Magellanic Cloud, a dwarf galaxy of our own Milky Way, harbors a heretofore unconfirmed supermassive black hole.  A new paper confirms the stunning detection.

This week, based on a genetic study, researchers issued a recommendation that bison in Yellowstone National Park should be treated as one large, interbreeding herd. Physicists proposed a new framework that derives gravity from quantum relative entropy,

Astronomers have uncovered a baffling cosmic anomaly — a supermassive black hole in galaxy NGC 5084 that appears to be completely tilted relative to its galaxy’s structure. This discovery, hidden for years in archival data,

Astronomers have discovered strong evidence for the closest supermassive black hole outside of the Milky Way galaxy. This giant black hole is located in the Large Magellanic Cloud, one of the nearest galactic neighbors to our own.

The Large Magellanic Cloud is a dwarf galaxy residing near our Milky Way, visible to the naked eye as a luminous patch of light from Earth's southern hemisphere and named after Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan,

Scientists are working to identify an oddly pulsating, supermassive black hole ( SMBH) that pulled a really weird stunt. More specifically, this SMBH appeared with an “optical, UV, and X-ray outburst” in 2018, and researchers finally noticed the pulse in 2022. In just two years, it increased in frequency from every 18 minutes to every 7.1 minutes.

Black hole singularities should not exist, according to theories of quantum mechanics. New tweaks to Einstein's equations of general relativity could finally do away with them, and explain what truly lies at the heart of a black hole.
