New research presented at an astronomy meeting shows that active black holes are more common in dwarf galaxies than earlier studies suggested, based on a large survey of nearby galaxies.

The James Webb Space Telescope captured infrared light from a black hole and gave scientists unprecedented insights into the object's structure.

This is the reality for astronomers today, who are capturing faint signals that have traveled for over 13 billion years to reach Earth. These signals originate from a time when the universe was still ...
