The universe seems to be spinning, and that could explain what dark energy is and why it's weakening while revealing our ...
Rotating black holes are the most powerful phenomenon in the known universe. Their powerful gravity radically alters the curvature of spacetime around them, leading to relativistic effects like ...
The energy that Penrose and now Pinochet suggest could theoretically be extracted from black holes is the kinetic energy that keeps them rotating. Obviously, black holes aren't the only cosmic ...
Humans are quite rightly fascinated by black holes, but could we ever harness them as an energy source? New research poses this question in order to explore some of the most wonderous cosmic events.
"I think that the simplest explanation of the rotating universe is the universe was born in a rotating black hole." Without a doubt, since its launch, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has ...
The supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy Messier 87, known as M87*, continues to reveal its secrets. A new study using data from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has determined that ...
A neutron star's final moments may spark violent starquakes, monster shock waves, and even a fleeting, never-before-seen ...
The world’s first ‘black hole bomb’ has been created, and while it sounds like something out of a movie, its implications are ...
"One explanation is that the universe was born rotating. That explanation agrees with theories such as black hole cosmology, which postulates that the entire universe is the interior of a black hole." ...
Black holes are mysterious objects – there’s a lot we don’t know about them. One longstanding question has been whether rotating black holes, which are so powerful they drag space-time along ...
Cosmologists would be thrilled to learn that either (or both) of these possible explanations are true: that the cosmos is rotating or that it’s the interior of a giant black hole. Such ...
Without a doubt, since its launch, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has revolutionized our view of the early universe, but its new findings could put astronomers in a spin. In fact, it could tell ...
