Gargantuan Black Hole Jets Are Biggest Seen Yet - Astronomy
WEB2 days ago · The jumbo jets blast hot plasma well beyond their own host galaxy. Astronomers have spotted the biggest pair of black hole jets ever seen, spanning 23 million light-years in total length. That's equivalent to lining up 140 Milky Way galaxies back to back. "This pair is not just the size of a solar system, or …
A wobble from Mars could be sign of dark matter, new study finds
WEB3 days ago · In this case, they assumed it to be as massive as the largest asteroids in the solar system, consistent with other astrophysical constraints. The researchers simulated various asteroid-mass black holes flying through the solar system, from various angles, and at velocities of about 150 miles per second.
