Black Holes What is a Black Hole? A black hole is a region of space that has so much mass concentrated in it that there is no way for a nearby object to escape its gravitational pull. An example of gravity I will quote from Black Holes FAQ by Ted Bunn. “Suppose that you are standing on the surface of a planet. You throw a rock straight up into the air. Assuming you don’t …showed first 75 words of 930 total…

…showed last 75 words of 930 total…Wormholes are exactly like white holes, they don’t exist. Wormholes would also be highly unstable, so anything traveling through it could make it collapse. Finally, radiation that would pour into the wormhole would get blueshifted to very high frequencies. This would make it very hot. Conclusion Black holes are very interesting. By putting further research into them we will probably one day be able to harness their powers and do amazing things. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography**
