Black Holes are dark and dangerous holes that nothing should travel near NOT even matter should never ever venture here. This all sounds so dark and menacing but really are Black holes really dangerous? Black holes are formed when stars have reached the end of their life cycle and then die out with a huge explosion. Black holes are usually born from Supernova's. A supernova is a massive explosion that comes from the death of a red giant. Red giants are massive stars that are about 10-100 times the size of our sun. Red Giants have an earlier cycle as a Blue Giant. Blue is known to the hottest concentrated form of heat and so when a star becomes a blue giant it will burn hotter, faster and have a shorter life cycle. And so when Blue giants have burned through its life cycle it then becomes a red giant. Red Giants are the last stage in the cycle. Many people know as a fact that red is the coolest color having a cooler temperature and lasting much longer than a blue star for instance. Once a Red giant has reached its breaking point it erupts in a dazzling explosion and from there on it becomes a supernova. From a supernova as it continues getting its act together. After a certain period of time evolution takes its place and a supernova loses its gravity and then finally after long intense years it finally reaches its breaking point and becomes a black hole. From then on the forces of nature take over and the black holes is born. When many people think of black holes they only think of it as two parts the actual hole and the space around it. But that estimate by many people is wrong for a black hole is complex with many sections of it. The first major part of it is a region called "The Event Horizon" in this region anything that approaches it can only be pulled inward and can never try to resist the pull of the region. Once inside the region is will be pulled into the Ergosphere. In the ergosphere what happens is that any object that tries to stay put will be forced into a constant state of movement that will never assure that it will stay still ever again. The Ergosphere surrounds the event horizon and once an object has made entry into the event horizon this is the next stop it will take. Even though black holes sound scary, dangerous and even life threatening to many people black holes for many people are the open doorway to information that scientists for many years have been trying to get their hands on and thanks to black holes are knowledge is helping us make progress (Black Holes).
