The Latest Breaking News from Stephen Hawking

Did astronomers see a black hole explode? An 'impossible' particle that hit Earth in 2023 may tell us

"If our hypothesized dark charge is true, then we believe there could be a significant population of primordial black holes, which would be consistent with other astrophysical observations, and account for all the missing dark matter in the universe."

10 years ago, gravitational waves changed astronomy. A new discovery shows there’s more to come

Ten years ago, scientists heard the universe rumble for the first time. That first discovery of gravitational waves proved a key prediction from Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity and began a new era of astronomy.

Crashing black holes validate Stephen Hawking – new research

Black holes may be the fiercest objects in the universe, yet we still know very little about them. It has only been a decade since we confirmed their existence by detecting gravitational waves: ripples in the fabric of spacetime.
