A new theory challenges the existence of Sagittarius A* as a traditional supermassive black hole at the Milky Way's core, proposing instead a dense fermionic dark matter clump that mimics its ...
Primarily using radio telescopes in New Mexico and South Africa, scientists are watching the black hole, as it continues to belch out a fast-moving jet of material.
Long-held assumptions about what lies at the center of the Milky Way could be incorrect, as new international research ...
A massive filament of gas and dust, designated X7, has been elongated during its long approach to the Milky Way galaxy's ...
