Taking a Look at Black Holes

A black hole is a point in space where there is extreme gravitational pull, so extreme that light itself cannot escape. The strength of gravity is so strong due to the fact that an immense amount of matter has been contained in a small space.

This paper will introduce you to the incredible topic which is black holes. A black hole is a region of space time exhibiting such strong gravitational effects that nothing can escape from inside it. (NASA) No human has ever entered a black hole and there is still a large mystery about them; we have very little idea of where the matter that enters them goes. A black hole cannot be looked into either, as it sucks all the light into the middle of it. Space programs use special satellites with certain features that allow them to see these black holes. A black hole can be big or small, sometimes forming when a star is dying. Some scientists speculate that there can be black holes just 1 centimeter large. There are multiple types of

Discovered in 1916 by Albert Einstein, a black hole is an area of space-time showing very strong effects, that nothing can escape from the black hole. Space-time is the belief that there is no time in space, so there is no aging or time whatsoever. There are three different types of black holes. Stellar-mass, supermassive, and intermediate. All three are very strong, but the supermassive is currently the strongest reported. Not all black holes are large, but extremely powerful. The supermassive black holes are the biggest type of black hole and most of the time are found in the center of massive galaxies. Stellar-mass black holes are formed by a star collapsing. Intermediate black holes are stronger than stellar-mass black holes, but weaker than supermassive. Supermassive is the least common black hole there is.

Black holes should probably not be called black holes. In fact, black holes are anything but empty space. Black holes are a great amount of matter packed and squeezed into a very small area. The result of this amount of matter squeezed into a small area results in a gravitational field so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape.

Due to this a lot of matter condenses to a small space which causes gravity to be stronger that not even light can escape. And since there is no light we ca not see it due to it being so dark rendering it virtually invisible, luckily we have created space telescopes with special tools to help us locate Black Holes. As we all know the strength of the gravity of the Black Hole varies on its size, but what we don't know is that where does everything a black hole pulls into it go? For as long as we have know about Black Holes we have wondered, where do the things a black hole takes go? Many scientist have theorized a numerous amounts of possibilities. And as of know we will never know and hopefully we

Black holes are a staple in the study of our unknown universe. The current understanding of general relativity allows something like a black hole to exist due to the strange properties surrounding them, as well as the effects on their surroundings. Black holes are defined by Chaisson's Astronomy as "a region of space where the pull of gravity is so great that nothing, not even light can escape" (Chaisson, 2013). This definition is very broad, simply stating the effects of what we call a black hole. Indeed, there is a lot of thoughtful assuming done when discussing this phenomena, however, what if everything we thought we knew about black holes was wrong and black holes didn't actually exists. That is exactly what a small group of scientists and astronomers think is the case.

Coupled with new discoveries, black holes frequently cause series of events throughout a universe. According to The Gale Encyclopedia of Science, in their article titled, “Active Galactic Nuclei”, “Active Galactic Nuclei’s (AGNs) are located at the centers of some galaxies—perhaps most galaxies—and emit a tremendous amount of energy across part or all of the electromagnetic spectrum, sometimes on the order of trillion times the output of the Sun” (The Gale Encyclopedia of Science). In other words, AGNs are the center of the universe and can be violently energetic objects. Leading astronomers concluded that a super massive black hole was at the center of every AGN, and the main source of its power, containing a million to ten billion times the mass of the sun (The Gale Encyclopedia of Science). Eagerly,

Supermassive Black Holes: These types are the biggest among the three. They are created at the same time as the galaxy they are in. The size of the supermassive black hole is related

When you are outside during night time and look up, you see thousands of stars of sizes, and color. Sometimes if you are lucky you get to see planets that also glow brightly such as Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and so on. But there is one thing that is hidden from the naked eye and can make any of the things I mentioned, disappear. That thing is called a black hole. I am studying black holes because I want to find out how they affect us now and in the future, in order to help my reader understand I will explain how a black hole works, which will be useful to understanding how they can be used for space travel and how they are in the center of every galaxy.

Black holes are formed by an interesting phenomenon. When stars collapse on themselves, they create what we know as black holes. This collapse can cause a giant supernova, which can blast a part of the star into space. This largest black holes astronomers believe, were created when the “Big Bang” happened. This means black holes grow over time.

Black holes, complex and difficult to understand, have intrigued both scientists and physicists alike since the eighteenth century. French scientist Pierre-Simon Laplace, born in 1749, was one of the first scientists to argue for the existence of an unexplainable body that encompasses an endless amount of space . Following Laplace, John Archibald Wheeler, an American physicist born in 1911, coined the term “black hole” for a space entity that is “so compact (in other words, has enough mass in a small enough volume) that its gravitational force is strong enough to prevent light” and all other matter from fleeing its body (What Is a Black Hole?). Black holes, therefore, are masses that have a gravitational force so great that they attract

Another method in physics on how to time travel is through black holes. A black hole has been discovered by Einstein's theory of general relativity, which showed that when a star dies, it leaves behind a small, dense remnant core. If the core’s mass is more than the sun, the force of gravity overwhelms all other forces in which it transforms into a black hole. Scientists have said that black holes can destroy anything that goes in it and it could be hard to get out of a black hole, once something went in it. In an interview by physicist Lior Burko, he states, “One possibility is that black holes may allow us to travel to very remote places in the universe, or another universe entirely,” (Kahney, “Black Holes and Space Time”). Black holes may have evidence that there are different kinds of parallel universe. Even though it is still unclear what black holes can do as in destroying everything that it goes in or if it leads someone to time travel into another parallel universe. Scientist are trying to create a black hole, here on earth, to see what blacks can do as in sending information to another universe.

When a star with a mass about 20 times that of our Sun comes to the end of its life, it will run out of nuclear fuel, therefore collapsing in on itself. This collapse results in a chasm in space-time with such a high density that not even light can escape its gravitational pull; this is what we call a black hole.

Black holes are one of the most mysterious aspects of the Universe. Scientists know that black holes contain an insane amount of matter packed into a small space with a gravitational field so intense that not even light can escape it. This review will focus primarily on what is known about black holes, how scientists know black holes exist, current studies and experiments, and why they are studied. Based off the knowledge humans have already uncovered about black holes, they could change the future. Black holes could realistically be used to power starships, enabling humans to travel at near light speed to explore the Cosmos. Humans would be able to conquer the most unknown frontier yet.

A black hole is a dead star in outer space. It is where planets and stars disappear at. The gravity of a black hole is way too strong ( Aguilar 39). The black hole is a weird object in outer space and a black hole is formed when two giant stars or more collapse together and basically vacuum anything that comes near it ( Aguilar 39). It might be gases around the black hole. People call it a black hole because light
