We-ve covered a lot of incredible stuff, but this week we-re talking about the weirdest objects in space: BLACK HOLES. Stellar mass black holes form when a very massive star dies, and its core collapses. The core has to be more than about 2. 8 times the Sun-s mass to form a black hole. Black holes come in different sizes, but for all of them, the escape velocity is greater than the speed of light, so nothing can escape, not matter or light. They don-t wander the Universe gobbling everything down around them; their gravity is only really intense very close to them. Tides near a stellar mass black hole will spaghettify you, and time slows down when you get near a black hole - not that this helps much if you-re falling in. Crash Course Astronomy Poster

I'm not sure it was known for certain that Sagittarius A- was a black hole at the time of posting.
In October 2018, it was concluded that Sagittarius A- was a black hole with certainty beyond a reasonable doubt based on observations of gas/dust moving at otherwise impossible speeds. 3C)

You could not fail to learn from Phil, the enthusiasm from an expert is just epic to watch. This guy needs a syndicated series, reminds me of the great James Burke! The view must be great, standing on the shoulders of Giants. I know I look up to you, keep on doing these!

So I jumped to a black hole in Elite: Dangerous, and had to emergency stop 45. 6km from the event horizon. Should I technically have been able to escape? (I was but I'm not sure if it should have actually been possible)
reply

Black hole evaporation is confusing as the matter generates antimatter which can loose on of it only at the event horizon how will this eat up matter inside the event horizon. I dont understand how that can escape.

7: 25 -compaired to either black hole,
a star still has substansial size,
and when it gets close to either black hole,
it can be distrupted via tides- CrashCourse Poems

I've got it.
The only way to survive falling into a black hole is to be _made_ out of spaghetti, because if you already are spaghetti, how can you be spaghetified?

IT's a shame you talk so quickly. There are incredible facts in here but this is very hard to keep up with, as there is a lot of new information delivered rapidly.
reply

I don't get it gravity depends on mass and distence. not density right. if density increases mass remain constant it just the volume that decreases
reply

I think it is interesting that we don't seem to find things until someone predicts that they should exist and then whamo we find them.
