This supermassive black hole-food cooling process was discovered by astronomers using NASA's Chandra X-ray telescope and the Very Large Telescope (VLT) to observe some of the universe's most massive ...

Observations from 2017 and 2018 by the Event Horizon Telescope have enhanced understanding of the supermassive black hole M87*, focusing on its turbulent accretion flow.

"A few years ago, the M81 FRB was surprisingly discovered within a dense cluster of stars called a globular cluster," Fong said. "That event single-handedly halted the conventional train of ...
