Are Black Hole Images Testing Einstein? Beyond General Relativity
Can Black Hole Images Probe Einstein’s Gravity? As telescope arrays sharpen their view of the cosmos, scientists are increasingly able to scrutinize the regions immediately surrounding black holes. The goal is no longer just to capture a striking silhouette against the shimmering accretion disk, but to test the very laws that govern gravity. The central…

Could Future Black Hole Images Decide If Einstein Was Right About Gravity?
A new frontier in black hole imaging As astronomical techniques sharpen, scientists are increasingly confident that the next generation of black hole images will test the limits of Albert Einstein’s general relativity (GR). The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) and related efforts have already produced striking portraits of black holes, notably the supermassive object at the…

Million-Sun-Mass Dark Object Detected by Gravitational Lensing
A New Dark Corner of the Cosmos In a landmark finding, astronomers have identified a mysterious object weighing about one million times the Sun’s mass. This invisible entity gives off no light or detectable radiation, yet its presence was discerned through a subtle but revealing effect: gravitational lensing. As light from a distant source passed…

Mysterious Dark Object in Space: A One-Million-Solar-Mass Discovery
Unveiling the Dark: A New Mass Benchmark in the Cosmos In a landmark discovery, scientists have identified a dark object in the distant universe with a mass equivalent to one million times that of the Sun. This object emits no light of its own, but its immense gravity leaves a telltale imprint on the light…

Record-Low Mass Dark Object Discovered via Gravitational Lensing
Unveiling the Invisible: A Dark Object with Grand Mass In a striking demonstration of how gravity can illuminate the unseen, an international team of researchers has identified a dark object in the distant universe with a mass of about one million solar masses. Located roughly 10 billion light-years away, this object is the lightless heavyweight…

Mysterious Dark Object in Space: A Milestone in Dark Matter Discovery
New Milestone in Dark Matter Studies A worldwide team of scientists has detected an unusually massive yet invisible object in the distant universe. With a mass of about one million times that of the Sun, this dark object is the lowest-mass dark body detected to date using gravitational lensing. The finding provides a powerful glimpse…
