Astronomers theorize that a low-mass white dwarf, a compact core of a dead star about as large as Earth, could be the culprit. A cosmic mystery surrounding a black hole some 270 million light ...
Scientists have observed X-rays emanating from a white dwarf orbiting a supermassive black hole in a galaxy near the Milky Way. The study notes the stability of the dwarf's orbit, despite its ...
"This tells us that objects like white dwarfs may be able to live very close to an event horizon for a relatively extended period of time." SEE ALSO: NASA scientist viewed first Voyager images.
