Among the events it can identify are tidal disruption events, where a star gets spaghettified by the enormous gravity of a ...

Over the past decade or so, astronomers have speculated about the characteristics of rogue planets in the Milky Way galaxy. These "free-floating" worlds don't orbit stars, but instead roam the ...

New research challenges the long-accepted notion of singularities in black holes — the point where physics allegedly breaks ...

Astronomers have observed a tidal disruption event, AT2024tvd, revealing a rogue supermassive black hole devouring a star far ...
