What Are Black Holes? A black hole is an astronomical object with a gravitational pull so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape it. A black hole’s “surface,” called its event horizon, defines the boundary where the velocity needed to escape exceeds the speed of light, which is the speed limit of the cosmos. 10/21/2024 - 1:59 pm | View Website
Black hole A black hole is a region of spacetime where gravity is so strong that nothing, not even light and other electromagnetic waves, is capable of possessing enough energy to escape it. [2] Einstein's theory of general relativity predicts that a sufficiently compact mass can deform spacetime to form a black hole. 10/21/2024 - 11:57 am | View Website
