the universe

If you are ever on the history channel I would advise you to watch "The Universe" it is a very interresting show which it explaines most of the universe's things and why they happen they interview top sciencetist's. So if you the show "The Universe"I would advise to watch it.

Black holes


Black hole is a term for a place where the gravity is so intense that not evan light can escape it. It is a event horisen where its a one way surface where things can go through buit cant come back. We know that they exist but we dont know how they are born or where they are born. We dont evan know what will happen if u fell into one but they are one of the universe's most powerful thing that it overwhelms everything else in the universe and we still dont know the answers to the important questions.The nearest black hole is alot of light years away.
