    objects disappearing into a black hole with no trace, he announced he believed that black holes can preserve information from objects swallowed up. "If you jump into a black hole, your mass energy will be returned to our universe, but in a mangled form, which contains the information about what you were like, but in an unrecognizable state." Hawking stated.[10] This tells us that nothing has ever completely disappeared in a black hole. Any objects that are sucked into black holes are completely mangled

    Helium Synthesis

    The first process every star goes through before its end is the process of their core shrinking. When stars of at least .4 M begin to exhaust their hydrogen supply, the hydrogen starts to fuse in a shell that is outside the helium core. As the shell burns more hydrogen it is also producing more helium, this allows the core to increase in its mass and temperature. When the temperature increases greatly, helium fusion begins to start in what is called a helium flash, causing the star to rapidly decrease

    What are Blackholes? A black hole is a collapsed star which has so much mass in such a small amount of space that it breaks the laws of space and time. The singularity of the blackhole has an unimaginable gravitational pull. It is so great that not even [0] light can escape it. This is why the core is black. The size of black holes can be very di erent. Scientists think the smallest ff black holes are as small as just one atom. These black holes are very small but have the mass as much as a mountain

    In galaxy J0230 the disk of debris around the black hole in the center spins very, very fast. The black hole has as much mass as 2.2 billion suns The disk debris is mostly made of gas from surrounding nebulae. The gas orbits the supermassive black hole at around a fifth of light speed. That is around 125 million miles per hour or 200kph. The disk of gas around the black hole is propelled by the radiation emitted by the disk itself. The disk emits radiation because of the friction and gravity

    "A singularity is a place on either space or time at which some quantity becomes infinite (without an end). Such a place is found in a black hole, the final stage of a collapsed star, where the gravitational field has infinite strength." Singularity could exist in the space - time in a real universe is what Penrose proved. (notable biographies.com) Hawking used the work of both Penrose

    15. Dark Matter and Dark Energy (1500 to 2000 not including references) Explain both concepts and the differences between them. Describe the observations that led to the hypothesis that dark matter is an important component of the Universe. Describe the suggested constituents of the dark matter. There have been many attempts to understand the world we live in, ranging from studies of objects as small in size as DNA to the study of massive objects as galaxy clusters and even the whole universe.

    star (Gursky 1975). The aftermath of a supernova is crucial because it frees iron, carbon, copper, and oxygen along with other elements found in a star. This explosion completely demolishes the star and has the ability to transform into either a black hole or neutron star (Freddy 2006). These supernovae are extremely bright and every 200 years there is an explosion that happens to be big enough and bright enough to be seen from earth. Neutron stars are very significant within the universe. It is said

    article was to tell us how on Thursday, February 11, scientists discovered gravitational waves cause by two black holes colliding a billion light-years away and in addition to the research leading up to the discovery to gravitational waves. The article starts telling the readers how a team of scientists announced on Thursday, February 11, that they had heard and recorded the sound of two black holes colliding a billion light-years away. The far-off tone that was recorded is the first straightforward evidence

    same disjointed whole. How can I hold a single one accountable? No one ever walks away from love, knowing they can never go back. The very first thought I ever had in my entire life was of a black hole. Even now, the black holes dominate my musings. Whilst idle, I imagine the event horizon of a black hole, the edge upon which matter can no longer sustain itself. It is the epitome of annihilation. It rends information limb from limb, molecule from molecule. It can consume entire galaxies if so
