Black HOles

No one is sure that Black Holes really exist, but most scientists think they do. They are very hard to see, because they are black and so is space. They are black because their gravity is so strong that not even light can escape them.

Black Holes can form from a supernova explosion. The collapse of a star's surface inward causes the explosion. And it also makes a black hole. But only if the star was big enough. It takes a pretty big star to make a Black Hole.

Some astronomers believe that they have seen Black Holes indirectly. They think that they can see Black Holes gobbling up stars that got too close to them. They also think that most galaxies may have a giant Black Holes in their centers.

What would it be like to enter a black hole? Not fun. First, as you approach the black hole the difference in gravity's pull on your head compared to your feet would rip you apart. But suppose you survived that. Once you entered the Black Hole you cannot return, remember not even light gets away from a Black Hole. In the end the Black Hole would crush you out of existence. So I wouldn't try it if I were you.

Planets around other Stars

Did you know that about 200 planets have been found around distant stars? The first planet around a star like our Sun was found in 1995. Since then, a new planet has been found almost every month!

The star and its planet move around each other. The planet moves in a wide orbit. The star just wobbles slightly. This causes a Doppler shift of the light. Most of the distant planets were discovered this way.

Some of the planets pass in front of their star. This blocks out some of the light. It makes the star look dimmer. It's like a solar eclipse. The planet only covers a small part of the star. Only a few of the planets pass in front of their stars.

All of the new planets are too far away to see directly. We can only see their effect on the star that they orbit.
