Amarante Sititi is following her brother Wallace into international rugby, earning her first Black Ferns call-up at just 19 years old. The rising star is one of five new players selected for New Zealand's upcoming eight-test season.
The University of Southern California brought hundreds of students together for a joyful celebration honoring a century of Black History Month. Music, Black-owned vendors, and cultural traditions filled McCarthy Quad as the campus community gathered to recognize past achievements and future possibilities.
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope just solved a 30-year mystery about black holes while capturing the clearest image ever taken of a black hole's surroundings. The breakthrough reveals how supermassive black holes actually feed, changing what scientists thought they knew.
A supermassive black hole in a nearby galaxy is feasting on matter just like black holes did right after the Big Bang, giving scientists an unprecedented window into the early universe. The discovery could help solve long-standing mysteries about how galaxies and black holes formed billions of years ago.
Fifty Black entrepreneurs gathered at the Anchorage Museum for the 11th annual Alaska Black Business Expo, proving their thriving community continues to grow. The event brought together an estimated 1,500 Black-owned businesses across the state for what attendees called "a family reunion."
Scientists just caught a supermassive black hole waking up for the first time, firing cosmic winds at 14% the speed of light. This breakthrough shows exactly when and how black holes reshape entire galaxies.
Physicists have found a simpler way to explain how black holes behave, using ideas similar to boiling water. This breakthrough could help us understand black holes during their most dramatic moments, from birth to explosive death.
Around 100 Black fathers transformed a North Omaha street into a powerful celebration of engaged fatherhood and community presence. The march sent a clear message that Black fathers show up every day as parents, mentors and leaders.
Astronomers detected a new type of gravitational wave that could reveal what happens right at a black hole's point of no return. The discovery came from the clearest black hole collision signal ever recorded.
NASA's Webb telescope just rewrote what scientists thought they knew about black holes. The discovery revealed that feeding black holes are far tidier eaters than anyone imagined.
Astronomers are closer to solving one of space's biggest mysteries: whether black holes or galaxies formed first. New evidence suggests black holes might have been the cosmic pioneers.
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope discovered a supermassive black hole that formed before its host galaxy, flipping our understanding of cosmic origins upside down. The 50-million-solar-mass black hole makes up two-thirds of its tiny galaxy's total mass.
For the first time, astronomers watched a massive star disappear and transform into a black hole without the usual supernova explosion. The discovery in the Andromeda galaxy could help scientists find countless hidden black holes across the universe. #
Scientists just figured out how supermassive black holes keep feeding themselves, solving a puzzle that's stumped astronomers for generations. The James Webb Space Telescope captured the clearest images ever of gas streaming into a black hole 145 million light-years away.
Astrophysicists just created the first detection system that uses gravitational waves to locate merging black holes across the universe, opening a revolutionary new way to explore space. The breakthrough already identified two supermassive black hole pairs nicknamed after Lord of the Rings locations.
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has identified the first ever "black hole star," a cosmic object that combines properties of both stars and black holes. This groundbreaking discovery could unlock secrets about how our universe began.
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope discovered a supermassive black hole that existed just 700 million years after the Big Bang, challenging everything scientists thought they knew about how these cosmic giants form. The black hole makes up two-thirds of its entire system's mass, suggesting it formed first and the galaxy came later.
The nation's second-largest school district is investing in Black male students through a proven mentorship program that teaches leadership and life skills. The 5000 Role Models of Excellence Project now serves LAUSD students during Black History Month and beyond.
Astronomers just weighed a black hole from when the universe was only 700 million years old and discovered something remarkable: it's so massive it likely formed before its own galaxy. The finding could finally explain how the universe's first supermassive black holes came to be.
