Are black holes good or bad?
These black holes are dark most of the time, but when their gravity pulls in nearby stars and gas, they flare into intense activity and pump out a huge amount of radiation. Massive black holes are dangerous in two ways. If you get too close, the enormous gravity will suck you in.
What do we not know about black holes?
We don’t have enough detections to know what mass of black holes are most abundant. While the merging black holes seen are of approximately equal masses, we do not know whether this is universal or just a selection effect among the mergers seen so far.
What are some unanswered questions about black holes?
Let’s dive in to find out the unanswered questions about these objects.
- What is a black hole?
- What is Event Horizon in a black hole?
- How Are black holes formed?
- Do black holes really exist?
- Who discovered black holes?
- What happens if you fall into a black hole?
- Which is the nearest black hole to Earth?
Why are black holes so black?
Black holes aren’t that sort of black. They’re black because even light, the fastest thing in the Universe, has given up trying to escape their immense gravity. Let’s aim for a little context.
Can you travel to the future through a black hole?
Using the gravity near black holes to travel into the future isn’t the same idea as entering a black hole and using it as a wormhole. As we hope to make clear throughout this topic, passing the event horizon of a black hole would be a very bad idea.
How much mass does it take to create a black hole?
If the core’s mass is more than about three times the mass of the Sun, the equations showed, the force of gravity overwhelms all other forces and produces a black hole. A video about black holes.
What is the hole in the universe?
There isn’t an actual “hole” involved at all. They’re massive black orbs in space with an incomprehensible gravitational field. We’re familiar with things that are black in color, like asphalt, or your favorite Cure shirt from the Wish tour that you’ve only ever hand-washed.
