Black Holes - Massive and Invisible
In this captivating short, we graze the mysterious world of black holes - celestial objects with intense gravity that make it impossible to escape once anything crosses the event horizon. Although these fascinating objects are formed by the collapse of massive stars, they are notoriously difficult to study as they cannot be directly observed. But, despite this challenge, scientists are determined to learn more about black holes by observing their impact on nearby matter, such as stars and gas, and by detecting their gravitational waves. Discover why these enigmatic objects continue to captivate the imaginations of astronomers and the general public alike.
