Effects of black hole



Hey guys, get ready for the next trip with AstroMe. 

Till now we have learned everything about black holes except the effects caused by them.

Cmon pack your bags, let's see what happens when we go to an area near the black hole where the gravitational force is not intense.



We know that the gravitational force near a black hole is very high compared to the force in empty space. Let's try getting into an area near the black hole where the gravitational pull is less intense. 

In this region, the gravitational force becomes high around the boundary of the black hole and the force outside is less. This difference in the gravitational force causes the body of the person to stretch like spaghetti. Yes! You heard it right! This also has a name. Interesting isn't it? This process is known as the Spaghettification or Noodle effect.



Extra Information:


  1. There is a formula that allows us to calculate how long our trip will take to get from the event horizon to the singularity at the center I.e T=0.000015×M seconds Where M is the mass of the black hole in terms of our sun.
  2. The smallest and the nearest black hole found till now is the unicorn black hole.

    • It is found in the constellation of one-horned rhinoceros.

    •  It is 1500 light-years away from the earth

    •  It is just three times the mass of the sun.

    • They found this with the help of a companion star which is red and dim in color. 


    Here we come to the end of our black hole series. 


     From the very beginning, black holes are full of mystery. Some of the other ways doubts on black holes keep adding on.


    So, here is the list of things we have learned so far:

    1. What is a black hole and how is it formed.
    2. What happens after a star dies.
    3. The boundary of a black hole- Event Horizon.
    4. Classification of black holes based on mass.
    5. Classification of black holes based on their properties

Hope you guys enjoyed learning about black holes! 

Shoot out questions in the comment box and let's learn together. Also, comment on which topic I should take up in my next post. 


Happy reading! 

See you guys on my next journey! Don't unpack your bags yet, we have lots of places to travel!!!

Classifications of neutron stars

  Hello guys! Welcome back to AstroMe!   So, in my last blog, we learned about NEUTRON STAR. Before reading this post. I recommend you to read my previous post as this is a continuation. Check out Neutron Star .   Neutron stars can be mainly classified into two types:  magnetars  and  pulsars . Without any delay, let’s see about the types in detail.    MAGNETAR: They have  very strong   electromagnetic energy  from where they get their name. They  rotate more slowly  in comparison to all the neutron stars. For example, they rotate just three or four times in 20 seconds.  They generate very strong  X Rays  and  gamma rays.   Magnetars can be  active or inactive.   They are considered to be active when all the above points can be seen   They are inactive when they  lose their fuel and magnetic energy.     ...

What is a black hole and how it is formed?

    I am pretty sure you might have heard a lot about black holes. Have you ever wondered what they are? You might have initially thought that black holes are objects in a fantasy story that is narrated to kids. Didn't you? Well, it’s actually a beautiful space phenomenon that I'll be explaining to you in this post. So let's begin!   What is a black hole? Credit: NASA Black holes are regions of space-time. Till now we have seen objects which are three-dimensional but in our space there is no restriction, an event can occur at any point in time and space, so they are interdependent, causing a four-dimensional space called "space-time", which Einstein first discovered in his " Theory of Relativity ".     Black holes are simply points (singularity - an infinity point in space-time) in space. They are so dense and have such a strong gravitational force that no particles or even electromagnetic radiations can escape. The next question will be: ...

Hey guys! Welcome back to AstroMe! Ready for another enthralling space adventure? Pack your bags and let’s travel to see and learn about one of the strangest objects in this universe. We're off!  If a star dies, it can become a white hole, black hole, or neutron star depending on its mass. We have already learned about black holes.  (Don't know anything about this yet?  check out this link Black holes )    Now let's learn about Neutron stars,  A neutron star is formed when a star with a mass of Chandrasekhar limit dies. Initially, they are formed through a supernova explosion. They rotate so fast that they produce so much magnetic energy. This energy can be the strongest one found in the entire universe. Protons and electrons combine in the explosion to form neutrons, and also some protons are left over. Protons and neutrons don't like to be with each other so they move apart. But the pressure causes them to attract and when it happens Ne...
