New measurements of the galaxy at the heart of the “Cosmic Horseshoe” indicate that it could house the most massive object ...

The massive "Cosmic Horseshoe" galaxy system likely hosts a colossal black hole measuring 36 billion times the mass of our sun — one of the largest ever seen in the universe, a new study finds.

At 36 billion solar masses, the newly discovered black hole is so massive that it seems to break some theories of the ...

Astronomers have identified an ultramassive black hole that could be the largest ever measured, hidden in a distant galaxy ...

Astronomers have discovered potentially the most massive black hole ever detected. The cosmic behemoth is close to the ...

Astronomers spotted the ultramassive black hole inside the Cosmic Horseshoe, an equally gargantuan galaxy so powerful that it ...

Astronomers have measured the weight of a huge black hole — 36 billion times the mass of our sun, or six times the size of our entire solar system — in an old and dead galaxy near Earth. This cosmic ...

It may be the most massive black hole ever found. 36 billion times larger than the mass of our Sun, it was previously hidden ...

Theoretically, there's no limit to how massive a black hole could grow. In practical terms, other constraints, such as the ...

Astronomers have identified a 36-billion-solar-mass black hole in the distant Cosmic Horseshoe galaxy, using a new technique ...

About 5 billion light-years away from where you're sitting, in one of the most massive galaxies on record, there exists an ...

A black hole with a mass equivalent to 36 billion suns—10,000 times heavier than the one at the center of the Milky Way —has been discovered around 5 billion light-years from Earth. It may be the ...
