An international team of physicists discovered the largest-ever merger of 2 black holes through a phenomenon known as gravitational waves.

Scientists predict up to 100 invisible galaxies may orbit the Milky Way, hiding just beyond our current detection limits.

The biggest black hole merger yet observed could confirm a rare class of black holes long thought to be missing from the universe.

There could be many more satellite galaxies orbiting the Milky Way than previously thought or observed, according to ...
