What are black holes?

Transcript

Black holes are regions in space with gravity so intense that nothing, not even light, can escape them. They form from the collapse of massive stars, creating a singularity at their center and an event horizon, which is the boundary beyond which escape is impossible. Black holes are classified into three types based on mass: stellar, supermassive, and potentially intermediate-mass. Their effects are observed through interactions with nearby matter, like X-ray emissions.
