Black hole

Body with powerful gravity that nothing can escape from it even light!!

Structure of black hole


Singularity --a point with infinite density black hole mass Event horizon --a boundary in spacetime where matter and light can only pass inward towards the mass of the black hole --nothing can escape from the from inside the event horizon

Formation of black hole

Final stage of star, Supernovaspend all nuclear fuelcant maintain its own temperature

star's temperature is no longer high enough to prevent it from collapsing under its own weight

Stability cracks under its own gravitycompact star

internal press ure is insufficient to resist the stars' own gravity


Gravitational collapse

outer shells of the star explode into the space

fall into the already dense black hole making it even heavier and denser

stellar mass black hole
