The sonification of WR 124 begins with a descending scream-like sound near the star’s hot core and incorporates musical ...

What is Space Jaws? A covert black hole revealed itself to astronomers in 2025 with a spectacular burst of radiation known as a tidal disruption event ...

It sounds like something from a sci-fi thriller. A giant black hole quietly drifted through space before tearing a star apart. Now, thanks to NASA telescopes, this silent predator has been caught ...

NASA's Hubble captured a rare event 600 million light-years away: a black hole devouring a star in a Tidal Disruption Event (TDE). This "offset" TDE, named AT2024tvd, suggests the black hole isn't ...

A TDE happens when an infalling star gets too close to a black hole. NASA has released a stunning image of a black hole swallowing a star and causing a massive explosion. Although the cosmic event ...

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the cosmos, NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has discovered a terrifying, roving, oft-invisible monster dubbed "Space Jaws." Lurking 600 million light ...

NASA's sonification of the supermassive black hole at the center of Centaurus A, a galaxy some 12 million light-years from Earth.

NASA describes a black hole as “an astronomical object with a gravitational pull so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape it.” The event horizon of a black hole is what astronomers ...
