Astronomers found the most massive stellar-mass black hole in the galaxy after spotting a star "wobbling" nearby. The baby monster is the 2nd-closest black hole to Earth ever detected. Astronomers ...
The Milky Way has a big newfound black hole, and it lurks close to Earth! This sleeping giant was discovered with the European space telescope Gaia, which tracks the motion of billions of stars in ...
ASTRONOMERS have uncovered a massive black hole just 1,924 light-years from our solar system. Located in the constellation of Aquila, the monster black hole is known as Gaia BH3 (or simply BH3).
With their ability to gobble up entire planets, black holes must be the most feared objects in the universe. Unfortunately, scientists in France have found another one in our galaxy – and they ...
Stellar black holes are formed by the gravitational collapse of a star with very few elements heavier than hydrogen and helium in their chemical composition. Gaia BH3's significant mass suggests ...

The largest known black hole in the Milky Way, excluding the supermassive black hole residing at the centre of our galaxy, has been found by London astronomers. Its mass is around 33 times that of ...
The Milky Way galaxy's most massive stellar black hole has been found by astronomers. Data from the European Space Agency's Gaia space observatory revealed this stellar giant because it causes the ...
Named Gaia BH3, it has a mass that is nearly 33 times that of our sun, and it’s located 1,926 light-years away in the Aquila constellation, making it the second-closest known black hole to Earth.
