Key Stage 4

An artist's impression of a black hole with matter spiraling in towards it and a jet of plasma sent out the top due to the extremely intense magnetic field.
Meaning
A black hole is the last stage in a high mass star's life in which the core has collapsed into a point so small that the gravity becomes so intense that not even light can escape.
About Black Holes
- Only the most massive stars become black holes.
- Black holes can be very small, only a few kilometers across, but they are extremely massive.
