What Forms A Black Hole
This typically causes a black hole.
What is a giant star dying? or supernova?
This boundary represents the point of no return for a black hole.
What is the event horizon?
If an object is orbiting close enough to a black hole time will
Freeze or stop moving
The effect that objects with high mass (like black holes) have on the fabric of spacetime.
What is bending?
Black holes have such strong gravity that even this cannot escape.
What is light?
This happens to time as an object approaches a black hole.
What is time dilation or slowing of time?
In order to not fall into a black hole, an object needs to increase it's ________
What is velocity?
This celestial object is similar to a black hole, but the star that made it just wasn't quite big enough.
What is a neutron star?
From an outside observer's point of view, what happens to objects that approach and enter a black hole?
They slow down and we never see them cross the event horizon.
If the Sun were replaced with a black hole of the same mass, it would be ______
What is smaller
This force inevitably takes over when fusion ends and the star collapses in on itself.
What is gravity?
If you are near a black hole, but not being affected by its gravitational effects that much, you have found yourself in this area of a black hole.
What is the Quiet Region?
This phenomenon describes our ability to see objects that are behind a black hole.
What is Gravitational Lensing
This is the size that an object would have to be compressed down to in order to become a black hole.
What is the Schwarzschild Radius?
The objects orbiting a black hole are moving so fast that they heat up and create this bright feature around the black hole.
What is the accretion disk?
This point inside the black hole is thought to have infinite density.
What is the singularity?
This pasta-related term describes what could happen to your body if you were to fall into a smaller mass black hole.
What is Spaghettification?
The "c" in the Schwarzschild Radius Equation represents this.
What is the speed of light?
