Discovery of Rare Gravitational Wave May Hold Key to First Evidence of Primordial Black Holes

Primordial Black Holes Natu 940x529

researchers may have found the first direct evidence of ancient black holes, which could revolutionize our understanding of dark matter. A gravitational wave, captured by LIGO in November 2025proposed a revolutionary hypothesis: the collision that produced the signal may not have involved ordinary black holes in stars, but rather black holes formed in the early … Read more

Cosmic 'Dead Zone' for Black Holes Is Real, New Evidence Suggests

The latest update to LIGO’s catalog has doubled the number of confirmed gravitational waves – waves in spacetime caused by catastrophic events. And now, astronomers come to the dire decision of selecting an updated dataset. In a Nature paper published today, researchers have confirmed the first evidence of two unstable supernovae, doing so with gravitational … Read more
