The 1st of 10,000 ‘missing’ black holes in the Omega Centauri star cluster has been found by the Hubble and James Webb space telescopes

Astronomers used 20-plus years of data from the Hubble Space Telescope and recent data from the James Webb Space Telescope to find Omega Centauri’s first stellar-mass black hole, which has a visible star companion that is shown in greater detail. (Image credit: ESA, NASA, Maximilian Häberle (MPIA), Joseph DePasquale (STScI)) The first of 10,000 missingContinue Reading
