Falling into a giant black hole is already a death sentence, but physicists say that even tiny, hidden black holes—leftovers from the early universe—could be just as lethal. These “primordial” black ...
So, you want to grow an avocado tree from seed? It’s not only a fun off-season activity, especially for kids, but it’s also very easy. Just know that since avocados are tropical plants, they won’t ...
Black holes are usually framed as the ultimate dead ends of the universe, but a new mathematical proposal suggests they might instead be raw material for building shortcuts through spacetime. In this ...
That’s why I love home gifts. You’re not just handing someone a box, you’re upgrading their Tuesday night. You’re giving them ...
The James Webb telescope may have detected the universe's earliest and most distant known black hole at the heart of galaxy GHZ2, revealing how the first black holes grew just a few hundred million ...
A team of astronomers has discovered a supermassive black hole that is 100 million times the mass of the sun. This impressive discovery was found using the powerful James Webb Space Telescope's (JWST) ...

Scientists flew the XL-Calibur telescope on a high-altitude balloon to measure polarized X-rays from Cygnus X-1. These measurements reveal details about the chaotic, superheated material swirling ...
A new mathematical model of a wormhole suggests that two black holes can be “cut and pasted.” Cut and paste is an official concept in math, referring to two surfaces that may be transposable. In this ...
"If this turns out to be real, then it’s enormous." Scientists may have "heard" the first tantalizing hints of long-theorized primordial black holes born during the Big Bang. The potential detection ...
The vision of mining space for resources is no longer science fiction. The moon's proximity to Earth and the presence of ...
It’s Black Friday and Cyber Monday season! Some of the best discounts I’m seeing have been for mini PCs, and that’s perfectly fine with me because I absolutely love these tiny computers. They take up ...
