Key Stage 4

 
An artist's impression of a black hole with matter spiraling in towards it.

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.
