Hubble ultraviolet spectra of 29 metal-poor massive stars show their winds slowing far more sharply than models assumed, which matters for how we read JWST's puzzling early galaxies. Yale meteorite work finds the outer Solar System's first planetesimals were built from 83 to 92 per cent chondrules rather than icy dust, and a new simulation suggests the black holes that wandered away from their galaxy's centre carry the clearest record of its past. We close with NGC 4698, a Virgo spiral rotating out of step with itself.

Astronomers have confirmed Elias 2-24 b, a Jupiter-mass world less than a million years old that is still gathering material inside a gap in its star's disc, making it comfortably the youngest planet ever found. We also look at new supercomputer simulations suggesting Webb's puzzling little red dots are fast-growing black hole seeds, a white dwarf that came back from the dead as a Wolf-Rayet star, and why Venus was never going to keep a moon.

A central prediction of Einstein’s theory of general relativity is that black holes are quite simple bodies. Their nature can be fully described by just their mass and their spin-rate.

Black holes fascinate us all with their incredible masses, jets of X-ray radiation and "feeding" on everything they can find - including other black holes.

I’ve read an interesting article a week ago about black holes and if a human can potentially enter a black hole and survive it. I thought, I pick this topic up for my monday article in the community.

The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) has discovered the most distant and hence oldest systems of binary quasars.

The 6.5 billion solar masses black hole in M87 was first imaged two years ago. Now it’s making the headlines again.
