Both have separate storylines coming up, with plenty of drama on the way. Lisa told us: "A lot's going to be happening with Bear Wolf. We don't know [what's going on with him]. The audience will ...

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope is transforming our view of the universe, offering an unprecedented glimpse into some of its most mysterious phenomena of black holes. From the distant edges of space ...

A black hole might conjure images of a dark, quiet void, but never-seen-before images captured by the James Webb Space Telescope reveals the centre of the Milky Way looks more like fireworks.

Tidal forces from the greater mass of the galaxy tend to drag matter inward toward Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way. Meanwhile matter within the galaxy is ...

Astronomers have discovered the oldest known example of disk galaxies orbiting far from Earth, in the constellation Sextant. They noted that this galaxy will be observable only 700 million years ...

It is the material blown on the wind from this Wolf-Rayet star that is feeding an accretion disk that spirals around the compact object. However, Cygnus X-3's luminosity is scarcely believable.

Around the quasar, the accretion disk is 15,000 times the length between the sun and Neptune, per the ESA, and its black hole weighs about the same as 17 billion suns.

Dr Wolf said the quasar's accretion disk was incredibly big, being seven light-years in diameter — 1.5 times the distance from our solar system to the next star in the sky, Alpha Centauri.
