Blacks are regarded as symbols of cosmic infinity: nothing escapes their gravity, not even light. However, some of them are probably not as eternal as it seems - they can even explode and we will see it soon. (Continue reading)

Black holes have always been one of the most intriguing mysteries of the cosmos. But a new research led by physicists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst could radically change what we thought we knew about them. Contrary to the popular belief that black hole explosions occur once every 100,000 years, this team maintains that there is a 90% chance of witnessing one in the next ten years. And not any type: it would be a primordial black ho…

According to a striking study conducted at the University of Massachusetts Amherst (UMass Amherst), the probability that we will witness the explosion of one of the universe's most mysterious structures, a black hole, within the next decade is quite high. Scientists estimate the probability at 90 percent. It was long thought that such cosmic events were extremely rare, observed only once every 100,000 years. However, new data and analysis are fu…

There could be 90% chance that in the next decade astronomers will spot an explosion in deep space confirming several theories established on black holes. This deflagration would release a complete collection of all the existing, known and unknown particles. This is what a new study of physicists from the University of Massachusetts claims to be doing. ... Read more The article 90% chance of observing the explosion of a black hole in the next te…
