📢 ESA XMM-Newton has detected an unprecedented X-ray signal coming from the very edge of a supermassive black hole 👉 esa.int/Science_Explor… This defies how we thought matter falls into black holes, and points to a potential source of gravitational waves for ESA's LISA mission.


🗓️ Mark your calendar! 23 January is the date for the second Director of Science Town Hall meeting with Prof. Carole Mundell @cmundell.bsky.social. All members of the scientific community are invited, regardless of career stage or affiliation. Join us online to learn more about the plans and priorities


On 23 January, from 14:00 CET, join us online for the second Director of Science Town Hall meeting with Prof. Carole Mundell @cmundell.bsky.social .
