Supermassive Black Hole present in the centre of galaxy can shut down star formation
A recently published study on the formation of stars in the space has revealed that young galaxies are the centers for start formation and when the galaxies start to evolve, it slows down the star formation process. The study was published on 1st January 2018, in Nature. It is the galaxies that determine the star […]
Scientists Ferret Out Black Hole That Is Fuelling Star Formation
It seems scientists are inching nearer to the complete exploration of ‘black hole enigma,’ which has been overwhelming astronomers since centuries. In a remarkable breakthrough, an international team of scientists has detected a black hole that is fueling star formation – a detection that can pave multiple new paths for solving black hole inscrutability. A […]
