NASA's Chandra X-ray telescope sees 'knots' blasting from nearby black hole jets
Astronomers continue to stress the value of X-ray science as NASA's flagship Chandra X-ray telescope remains on the chopping block.
NASA's Chandra telescope unveils mysterious details about black hole jets
Using NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory, a team of astronomers has discovered lumps of particles within a black hole jet in the Centaurus A galaxy, moving at an unprecedented 94% the speed of light. This observation challenges previous speed records and provides valuable insights into the enigmatic behavior of black holes.
'12-million-light years away': NASA's Chandra X-ray Telescope discovers mysterious knots in black hole jets
Astronomers revisited decades-old data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory, discovering bright, clumped “knots” in an energy jet from a nearby black hole.
NASA’s Webb and Chandra telescopes capture fast-feeding black hole from 1.5 billion years post-big bang
This low-mass supermassive black hole, spotted with NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope and the Chandra X-ray Observatory, existed just 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang. Remarkably, it is consuming matter at a rate more than 40 times the Eddington ...
NASA’s Chandra Telescope Observes Mysterious 'Knots' Blasting from Nearby Black Hole Jets
NASA’s Chandra spots unusual 'knots' in a nearby black hole jet. X-ray data shows bright knots in Centaurus A black hole’s jet. Knots in Centaurus A's jet exhibit changing brightness, speeds.
