NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will launch on August 30th, partly to detect black holes that existed up to 11 billion years ago.
Mitchell Carman, a graduate student at Johns Hopkins University, is the lead on the study.
Studying black holes is really studying the most extreme parts of physics, and it's all a part of trying to understand how the world works.
The Roman telescope will have the same resolution as the Hubble telescope, but with a much larger field of view.
The hardest part about observing black holes is that they're black and hard to see, even on a high-resolution telescope.
The best way to look for them is to look at the stars they're shredding apart with their massive gravitational pulls.

Researchers with the Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Violence Solutions tracked U.S.
gun mortality data from 2024, and they found that while firearm homicides dropped about 16 percent from the previous year, the U.S.
still notched the fifth-ever highest total gun deaths that year.
