Astronomers observe flares of light in the accretion disk around Sagittarius A* black hole

Astronomers have observed flares of light in the accretion disk orbiting the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A*, which is unique due to its shorter durations and varying brightness. This phenomenon provides valuable insights into the magnetic activity of black holes and can help test scientific theories, including Einstein's general theory of relativity.

Supermassive Black Hole Awakening in Another Galaxy

Scientists have observed a supermassive black hole in another galaxy awakening from dormancy and beginning to consume nearby material, a process that had never been seen in real time before. This phenomenon is crucial for understanding galaxy evolution and supermassive black hole physics.
