🕳️ oddquark // Black Hole Watch — 2026-11-03 JWST may have pinpointed where heavy black hole seeds were born! Billion-solar-mass monsters shouldn't have had time to grow so early, so catching their cradle could unlock how singularities got so huge so fast.

🕳️ oddquark // Black Hole Watch — 2026-11-04 Webb may have pinpointed the dense star clusters where heavy black hole seeds were born! 🤯 This could explain how billion-solar-mass monsters got so huge so early in cosmic history. We might be seeing the cradle of supermassive black holes. 🕳️ 🔗 https://phys.org/news/2026-11-jwst-heavy-black-hole-seeds.html #BlackHole #Astrophysics #GravitationalWaves #EventHorizon
