Gravity Leads To Black Holes
The infinite weirdness of black holes makes it difficult for a physicist to combine gravity with quantum mechanics (QM).
The fact that gravity works on everything makes it difficult to construct an apparatus to measure the QM properties of gravity. This is because the measuring apparatus can itself collapse into a black hole if it is heavy, and would not be able to measure accurately if it is too light.

Black Holes: The Dark Stars
A black hole is, like the name itself, a point of singularity and infinite density, which remains invisible, much like the event horizon, which is the surface.
A black hole, from a distance, carries the same properties of mass and gravity like a star would...
What Are Black Holes ?
- ….. was a star so massive that it had collapsed in on itself.
- It’s so massive that not even light can escape its gravity, which is why it’s almost perfectly black.
- It’s gravitational pull is so powerful, it warps and distorts not only light but also...
What are black holes ?
Black holes are particles which have huge gravitational power, almost 1000 times that of the earth or any other planet. Scientists say that if you put anything in front of a black hole, it's going to suck that thing immediately, within a fraction of seconds.
A gravitation...
