The image of supermassive black hole Sagittarius A * was created using data from the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration.
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have found that dust and water can persist in one of the most hostile ...
The star passes very close to the Milky Way’s supermassive black hole and could reveal the black hole’s spin by tracking how ...
A new study suggests that the young stars orbiting the Milky Way's central black hole may have a surprisingly ordinary origin ...

A star called S301 passes Sagittarius A* at 8% of light speed, near enough that the black hole's spin should bend its orbit.
A research team says this cone-shaped void amid cold gas may reveal the missing wind from the Milky Way's supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A*. Credit: ESO / NAOJ / NRAO / ALMA Suddenly, the Milky ...
Our galaxy's supermassive black hole is famous for being one of the dimmest in the universe. Evidence from a new space telescope shows that might not always have been the case. Sagittarius A*, located ...
Sgr A*, the four-million-solar-mass black hole anchoring the Milky Way 26,000 light-years from Earth, has been producing a persistent outflow of hot gas for at least 20,000 years — and astronomers ...
Scientists have understood for years that black holes should produce wind or streams of gas as they consume matter, but a search for such a wind around the central black hole of the Milky Way galaxy ...
