  3. May 23, 2024 · The results offer a new way to probe supermassive black holes and their evolution across the universe. Astronomers at MIT, NASA, and elsewhere have a new way to measure how fast a black hole spins, by using the wobbly aftermath from its stellar feasting. The method takes advantage of a black.

  4. May 6, 2024 · Tour an alternative visualization that tracks a camera as it approaches, falls toward, briefly orbits, and escapes a supermassive black hole. This immersive 360-degree version allows viewers to look around during the flight. Credit: NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center/J. Schnittman and B. Powell.

  5. This list contains supermassive black holes with known masses, determined at least to the order of magnitude. Some objects in this list have two citations, like 3C 273; one from Bradley M. Peterson et al. using the BLRM method, [4] and the other from Charles Nelson using [O III ]λ5007 value and velocity dispersion. [5]

  6. May 24, 2016 · Using data from NASA’s Great Observatories, astronomers have found the best evidence yet for cosmic seeds in the early universe that should grow into supermassive black holes.
