Scientists describe black hole creation through pure gravity and without s
Updated : 1 year ago IST
Traditional black holes, as predicted by Albert Einstein's theory of General Relativity, contain what are known as singularities, i.e. points where the laws of physics break down. Identifying how singularities are resolved in the context of quantum gravity is one of the fundamental problems

Hubble finds hungry black hole twisting captured star into donut shape
Updated : 3 years, 1 month ago IST
Black holes are gatherers, not hunters. They lie in wait until a hapless star wanders by. When the star gets close enough, the black hole's gravitational grasp violently rips it apart and sloppily devours its gasses while belching out intense radiation.
