WATCH: Rise and shine: Scientists watch black hole 'wake up' and emit light in far-off galaxy

The phenomenon that was observed is known as an active galactic nucleus, which is when the supermassive black hole start to shine even brighter due to the activity at the galactic core.

Twisted magnetic field observed around Milky Way's central black hole

Black holes are extraordinarily dense objects with gravity so strong that not even light can escape, making viewing them extremely challenging.

 This image shows the polarised view of the Milky Way black hole. The lines overlaid on this image mark the orientation of polarisation, which is related to the magnetic field around the shadow of the black hole.

A star is dead: Scientists watch supernova in real time - study

Scientists at Israel's Weizmann Institute of Science got lucky and managed to spot a star in a nearby galaxy go supernova, able to make a portrait of the star's last days.

Standard model debunked? Scientists say dark matter is impossible, never existed - study

Dark matter is supposed to be vital to the universe. A study by uOttawa's Prof. Rajendra Gupta claims that it isn't real and never existed, shattering the standard model of cosmology.

Researchers find 'excessively' large red supermassive black hole in early universe - study

A large and red supermassive black hole was found in a distant galaxy during the early years of the universe is excessively big for its galaxy, raising more questions about early galaxy formation.

Scientists find neutron star in heart of supernova, solving decades-old puzzle - study

The discovery of the neutron star at the center of the supernova finally puts to an end a mystery that has puzzled scientists for over three decades.

This is the universe's brightest light, fueled by the hungriest black hole - study

Scientists have found a gigantic quasar 500 trillion times brighter than the Sun, fueled by the fastest-growing black hole known to exist.

 This artist’s impression shows the record-breaking quasar J059-4351, the bright core of a distant galaxy that is powered by a supermassive black hole.

Our galaxy's supermassive black hole makes spacetime look like a football - study

Getting in the Super Bowl spirit? Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the heart of our galaxy, spins so fast that it makes spacetime around it shaped like a football.

 This artist's illustration shows a cross-section of Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way, warping spacetime to look like a football.
