  • Victoria Smith, 50, right, places a comforting hand on her father, Les Northrup, 88, who suffers from dementia, as they both participate in a poetry session for members of the Fond du Lac tribe suffering from dementia on the Fond du Lac Reservation in Minnesota on Friday, July 25, 2025.

  • This artist's concept depicts a supermassive black hole in the process of shredding a massive star—at least 30 times the mass of our Sun—to pieces. Scientists propose this is what happened around the distant black hole referred to as J2245+3743, which in 2018, brightened dramatically to create the brightest black hole flare ever recorded, shining with the light of 10 trillion suns. This is likely the most massive star-shredding event (formally called a tidal disruption event or TDE) ever observed and one of only a few to have occurred in an active galactic nucleus (AGN), which is an active supermassive black hole "feeding" off material in a surrounding disk. The stunning flare was discovered by the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF), based at Caltech's Palomar Observatory, and the Caltech-led Catalina Real-Time Transient Survey.
