- We've learned about the lifetime of stars, and we saw that very high mass stars will leave behind a black hole when they die. What else can we say about black holes? Is there any other way to make a black hole besides waiting for a huge star to die? Let's learn all about these mysterious things!

I’ve been binge watching your cosmology series and my 5 year old daughter has shown an interest. She particularly likes the music.
I hope she continues
This is probably the most underrated channels on TH-cam. I have only recently started watching your videos and I can already say that you deserve at least a million subs.
tell your friends and help me get there! :)
Yeah you're right man. I've only watched 2 videos so far but the quality of this content is outstanding. Easy to understand and interesting.
1 million soon!
@ierdnA adrecaL yeah that's absolutely very true(Sadly people don't like learning that much)..................(Once I met a girl that told me she hates learning!!!
)ohh that's really bizarre, atleast for me cuz i am not that kind of girl.........but ya its sure that we all watching this are not that type and it includes u as well😃😃😄😄😊😁👍
@@ProfessorDaveExplains and you are there now! :) we celebrate your awesome works
Ant Man was close to becoming a black hole!
ClemensAlive
That’s scary.
no he entered the quantum realm. meaning that he became subatomic up to the point where space and time don't make sense anymore.
He definitely became small enough. but I guess it wouldn’t be made for an interesting movie if he did turn into a black hole
@@AliceSpeltRight but ant man doesn't retain his mass when he changes size, if he did he would simply float away when he gets gigantic because he would displace enough air to float.
@@eyoelgashaw5089 Uh-uh. That does not matter. The existence of a black hole and the Schwarzschild radius depend only upon the mass of the object and its spacial extent, not upon its internal structure, sub-quantum or not. To the universe at large, it makes no difference (except to the hole's angular momentum) whether the contents of the hole are evenly distributed throughout the Schwarzschild sphere or concentrated into a space a fraction of the size of a proton.
Dave, learning about Hawking Radiation and the death of black holes is the first time that I’ve joyously exclaimed “that is f**king amazing!” out loud to myself on my own in a loooong time. I learn a lot from you by watching all of your videos, but THIS little titbit of science is absolutely fascinating, and I’m off to go learn more.
Thank you for the years of brilliant science communication. One of my favourite channels on TH-cam.
Due to a German spelling error in this video, this comment section now belongs to the BRD.
Thank you for your Compliance.
Sure, Sir Douche-A-Lot.
Dave, you know what makes these videos so good and entertaining? You! You sound so excited to be teaching! 😃
Your explanations about ALL the subjects you cover are amazing. Nobody else is covering key subjects and cross-refering them as methodically and systematically as you. Please, keep it up and thanks. :)
Hahah, as a german I loved the Schwarz(s)''child'' radius pronunciation
Well, it's just wrong, isn't it?

Even the description itself states they only took the event horizon shadow
This is a really amazing video. I had never thought about a lot of this before- I accepted that they existed- I knew where they came from- but I didn't realise the whole escape velocity thing. This video is great!
Great video. One minor error. You said the rockets and shuttles we send up have reached escape velocity. They haven't. If they had, they wouldn't orbit; they would leave.
Debunkosaurus all they need is more fuel.. there is a reason they don’t leave.. because they don’t want to leave, they want to orbit
@@caseynichols3851 There's more to it than just more fuel. More fuel means more weight which needs more fuel etc. Obviously it can be done. It has been done (e.g. Voyager 1 and 2). The point I was making is that the comment about rockets and shuttles reaching escape velocity was incorrect.
and about things like hot air balloons they don't have a velocity of 11.2 km/s right and yet they go up very high almost out of the atmosphere where people feel no weight, I think with constant velocity which need not be 11.2 Km/s anybody can reach outer space, it is only when one is throwing something into the sky it needs 11.2 km/s to escape the gravity, otherwise if u have a rock or something it can reach outer space slowly too.
2:15 you say that every shuttle that has made it to space achieved escape velocity, but that's not true: they achieved orbital velocity which allows them to not fall back down while still being gravitationally bound. Also, no shuttle or manned vehicle has ever reached escape velocity yet (but the appolo missions came very close)
This is true
Moreover, escape velocity is given for a free, non-propelled object, and it should be understood as “starting” or “initial” for this object. This means a space shuttle or a rocket don’t have to ascent that fast. Plus, linear speed of rotating earth’s surface works as a booster so rocket’s velocity relative to starting platform may be even lower.
Amazing video. I learned things I didn't even know could happen with black holes. Space is the place.
This channel is a one stop shop for everything I'm looking for! Great content.
Addendum, re 2:07
It's wrong to say "To make it into space, you need to reach [insert escape velocity or any other velocity here]" You don't need to reach escape velocity to make it into space. As long as your velocity is not zero and you have the energy to continue your motion, you can make it to space at ANY velocity. You can make it into space with a high altitude weather balloon and a velocity of 1 Km/ h. Escape velocity is instead, the velocity- unassisted by acceleration- needed to escape the gravity well of a body, such that the gravity of the body can no longer bring you back to its surface. Or to put it another way, escape velocity is when the curve described by your vector becomes flatter than the curvature of space around the planetary body in question. You need to reach escape velocity if you want to no longer be gravitationally bound to the body in question. However, you can both 'make it into space' AND be 'gravitationally bound to a planetary body' at the same time. That's why the moon is still with us in orbit.
Anyway, no disrespect to Prof. Dave. I'm certain he's already well aware of this and either made a simple mistake or was trying to explain it in simplistic/ layman's terms. There's quite a bit of technical stuff that goes into this (constant acceleration, or constant velocity and 0 acceleration? Hohmann transfer, or direct [which is currently impossible, due to the energy requirements] vector, etc...), so I can understand if Prof. Dave wanted to simplify things to avoid a lengthy tangent...
ok I understand ur point, but didn't understand the later part of ur upper paragraph, correct me if I am wrong, and about things like hot air balloons they don't have a velocity of 11.2 km/s right and yet they go up very high almost out of the atmosphere where people feel no weight, I think with constant velocity which need not be 11.2 Km/s anybody can reach outer space, it is only when one is throwing something into the sky it needs 11.2 km/s to escape the gravity, otherwise if u have a rocket or something it can reach outer space slowly too.
Your videos are best. Thanks for uploading this
Thanks for this channel Professor Dave
Love the way you explain this. Thank you!
I've watched a lot of these videos on black holes. I find them absolutely intriguing. But I learned more about them in this 9 minute video than I ever knew before.
Great stuff as usual Dave. Thank you.
I love the way you say 'how to make black holes ' as how to make pancakes. Explained in very understandable way, thank you so much!
7:56 Why does it have to be the negative of the pair that falls in? isn't there an equal chance that the positive one falls in, thus increasing the mass?
The mass isn't actually decreased *because* it is the negative one that falls in, as Dave said it, it's only for conservation of energy purpose. The reason why it loses mass is that *both* of the particles are created *from* the energy of the black hole and thus losing one of the two particles that was created from the black hole's mass will result in a decrease in it (remember mass = energy, so to create those 2 particles the black hole lost mass, but as those virtual particles usually recollapse on each other the black hole keep its mass, but if one of those 2 falls within the event horizon, they lose that other particle which was created from its own gravitational field energy, thus lose mass)
I just wanted to thank you for making these wonderful videos! I wish, more people would watch them and maybe then stop thinking about stuff like pseudo-science and start asking the right questions and most importantly look for answers in the right places. I am shocked at the loss of trust in science itself all around the world
Finally a how to video I can follow and implement in my life
*MADE IN HEAVEN!!!*
@@Jack_Woods Jojo: :0
2:38
No, because you cannot divide by zero.
The escape velocity would *approach* infinity, but it would not *be* infinity, as the answer of dividing any number by 0 only tends towards infinity. It *is* not infinity.
We can't divide by 0 so how do you know that? It couldn't be 0, so it's infinity.
Also, hes the scientist here. He knows more than you.
PLUS, an object with infinite density and infinite gravity. Yes. It does reach infinity.
@@SPIRIT1949 We can't divide by 0, but if you use something called limits, you find that the answer of anything divided by 0 tends towards infinity. It isn't equal to it. Just because someone's a scientist, doesn't mean they're an expert in everything. It might just be an oversimplification on his part.
@@umbraxenon5529 well, near infinity is still higher than 300 000 km/s, so that doesn't really matter
Wow! So many answered questions!!!
Great explanation, and very good graphics.
I'd love to see you and Anton Petrov collaborate and talk about black holes
finally found somebody with actual knowledge with whom I can talk to about space stuff. thnx for providing me the email address, but I would prefer to comment so that other people can see and make it useful for themselves and maybe to start a conversation and spread knowledge.... cheers...
Hi Dave,
it is called "Schwarzschild" not "Schwarzchild" and you pronounce the second part similar to "shield".
Literally "Schwarzschild" means black shield, a typically German Jewish name.
Thanks for catching that!
wow hey, we got a German here.. cool.. hey man! I learned greetings in German, interesting Language, it's similar to English unlike Spanish.
Wow 😮...that's what how I can learn more about it! Thanks so much! #1 Chanel for this subject I'm much more fascinated to get another one of those explanation! I love it! 👌 Very impressive and great work 👍 to this man! Seriously, you can also, put another's one channels followers face member...but my question is, are you doing professor or some other things like teachings ? Sure..got talent to 👍👌You makes better me result
Are you going to update this video with the recent imagery from M87?
Just found your channel and LOVE it!
Well there is no way to update videos, but I hope to make more astronomy tutorials soon so hopefully I can cover more recent discoveries!
You rock Dave!
Slight correction, at 7:19 you said the earth's orbit would be identical if the sun became a black hole of equal mass, not exactly true, firstly you have the sun's gravity going from almost circular to perfectly circular, also mercury might be in the ergosphere, we know the heat from the sun (the YORP effect in particular) is a major component in changing the orbits of asteroids, there is almost certainly more examples that I can't remember right now...
SchwarzSchild radius
Professor Dave, I have a doubt. I can't find any consistent article on this.
We just discovered the HR 6819 and, as you probably know, it was spotted by the two stars orbiting a heavier object. It was also reported that "there was an extra wobble in the periodic light shifts of one of the stars that indicated something else was asserting its presence."
Question: Why stars don't get their light strongly "dimmer" when they are at their "perihelion" to the massive object? I don't get that impression when I read "wobbling light observation" in the reports and articles.
Thanks in advance.
I always have trouble picturing what a black hole looks like: I see it represented as a literal "hole" in space, but it is actually an infinitesimal sphere that deforms spacetime so much that light can't escape. The picture he showed of the progressively smaller spheres which created what looked like spacetime wells helped me visualize it better. So is a black hole a point or a sphere with a ridiculously small radius, or are these essentially the same? Stars die and leave behind much smaller spheres, like a white dwarf; is a black hole kind of like a black dwarf/sphere (a physical "object") or is it nothingness, for the lack of a better word? Anyone?
What they actually *are* is unknown, even if we could actually see them we don't know if we'd understand what we're looking at. As for your point/sphere question, all we know is that they're something, they exist and appear to be spherical in shape, if you could call it a shape. Anything beyond the event horizon is basically a huge "we don't know, sorry". All we know for sure is that they're not only a point in space, but a point in time, some have argued that they're more of a fact than an object as its gravitational effect has a stronger influence on you, if that makes sense.
Picture this. Black holes are like a door in a mountain far away from your home, that takes you to your room in your house *magically* when you open it. The difference? There is no door, only a portal-ish thing, and you cannot go out, and light cannot too. So this is what makes black holes black. They can pull in light faster than it escapes. It may sound like fantasy(the mountain thing) but we do not know what’s inside.
Just a little correction: Karl Schwarzschild was german so his name should be pronounced “svartzshield”
W is a v in german , i is ee and ch is sj and lastly v is an f
So Volkswagen is folks vagen wich means “Peoples wagon”0
actually the first consonant should also be a SH aswell. otherwise it would be "Swarzschild" in german ;-)
so in letters of the international phonetic alphabet ist "ʃvaɐ̯tsʃɪlt"
"....particles appear from quantum foam"
Me: w-wait, what?
That's a great explainer.
you have the greatest intro
Hey Dave, great video. Could you explain why the virtual particle that falls into the Black Hole doesn't increase it's mass. Seems like the Black hole should be get bigger and bigger over time.
Ben Angel I’m no professor but I believe that it’s just because the density of the black hole is already infinite, so no amount of mass added can affect it. I honestly just accept the possibility of infinity’s existence as my answer.
Ben Angel Actually as I continued watching the video I realized that he said that the black holes actually do get bigger over time, either by swallowing more and more mass or by merging with another black hole
Are you saying escape velocity is the same as orbital velocity? I always figured escape velocity to be the speed needed to escape the Earths gravity well and for example, orbit the Sun, or head to an outer planet.
I have a question about the event horizon that has been bugging me for years.
Back in college (actually very close to when this video came out), my physics TA was teaching escape velocities using a photon orbiting black hole as one of the examples. During the example, the TA drew several possible orbits the photon might take. One path had the photon traveling in an elliptic orbit with the periapsis falling within the event horizon, while most of the orbit was still outside the event horizon (I hope that description makes sense).
The reason this has bugged me is that I've always heard that nothing can escape the event horizon, not even light. But this orbit still made sense to me; the TA explained that an escape velocity greater than c technically just means that nothing can escape the black hole's orbit, but it could still go outside Schwarzschild radius without reaching escape velocity. Therefore, while the photon could never escape, it was possible that it could still pass in and out of the event horizon while it orbits.
I thought this explanation made perfect sense; however, I've never once heard someone use an example of a similar orbit that only partially travels within the event horizon. Instead, I still always hear the event horizon described in the usual "point of no return" fashion, where nothing can ever leave.
So, is it literally impossible for light to exit outside the event horizon in any capacity, or is this just said as a simplification of light being unable to escape orbit? Do we actually know? They both would probably look pretty much the same to us since we could still never actually see anything (from Earth that is) that traveled inside the event horizon since the light couldn't escape orbit to reach us either way, so do we even have any way of finding out?
great video, buen video
I enjoyed this video as I do all your videos. I do have one question/comment. You said in the escape velocity equation that since the radius of a black home is zero that it would have an infinite escape velocity because the other terms would be divided by zero. But a number divided by zero isn't equal to infinity. It isn't equal to anything since division by zero is undefined. Perhaps a black hole's radius is something greater than zero or perhaps just as our physics breaks down in a black hole so does our math.
The radius cannot become zero. Every star has a rotation momentum which is preserved. Reducing the size of the object accelerates it's rotation. When you try to reduce any rotating object into a point you increase the rotation towards infinity. Both values cannot reach infinity. Rotation limits the smallest possible size which in turn limits rotation speed.
I came here looking to make one, like a 5 minute craft for a black hole. What a scam!
Lol, I love you Dave! Keep it up.
well if you manage to apply enough pressure to an object for it to become a black hole within 5 minutes u pretty much got what u came for :-D
7:44 coloring the name "Heisenberg" blue is very appropriate. I approve.
Sir when regular black holes do one of the two things, they become supermassive ones:
i. When they swallow/eat enough material from their surrounding in their lifetime to form supermassive ones.
ii. When they merge with another
So I have a doubt regarding the point i: does this not violate hawking radiation, hawking radiation suggests that more a black hole eats more it evaporates even faster. And so every black hole should evaporate and there should be only one way to form supermassive ones, as defined by us humans. Or am I getting/understanding the i or Hawking Radiation wrong?
Professor Dave Please Explain!!
And Professor Dave, one humble request: Please make a video on Hawking Radiation, because I'm pretty confused when I asked that question to (myself about i)
Thanks Professor Dave! This video breaks it down so even a plumber can understand it. Your area in science may not encompass the search for Earth-like planets but I pose a question to you, theoretically. If we are looking for Earth-like planets, shouldn't we concentrate on Milky Way type Galaxies in order for the physics to be equivalent?

How could two things infinitesimally small (quantum singularities) ever collide? ....or in other words, how could 2 things that have 0 volume manage to be in the same place at the same time?
I guess we know black holes collide, but Im struggling to visualize this. In my mind I can see that they are attracted to each other, moving towards each other but never quite reaching the same place in space given that their both infinitesimally small.
Ive been a science enthusiasts my whole life and was happy to randomly find your channel. Keep up the good work. John
Well we don't know what's going on in the singularity itself, but a black hole has an event horizon, so when we say they collide, we are talking about the regions enclosed by their respective event horizons. If that occurs, they merge and become one black hole with greater mass.
@@ProfessorDaveExplains Thanks for the reply. So we can't say for certain if the singularities ever meet in the same place in space....?
Well, I think we assume that they do, because that's where all the mass is, and that's what attracts them to one another, but we don't fully understand black holes, nor am I an expert, so an astrophysicist may be better at answering that question.
Thanks for the wonderful video! Why don't the north pole of any heavier object have space time curvature? Is space time curvature applicable only on south pole?
Very funny
Dave: Light travel at speed of light.
Me: Don't you say.
Nick Cage Meme.
If you have a star with initial mass at 50 Solar masses for example, it will lose a great amount of its mass in the form of stellar winds during its evolution. After core collapse and during the explosion most of the remaining mass will form the supernova remnant. Thus, the mass that is left as a black hole is just a fraction of the initial mass. Finally, there is a specific class of stars with initial mass 140-250 Solar mass, that will explode without living a compact remnant behind them.
Thanks!
"How to make a black hole"
*Hey Ferb, I know what we are going to do today*
Love your vids, drives me crazy that you mispronounced schwarzschild radius.
Small note- Space shuttles don't reach escape velocity because you don't need to to reach orbit. The Saturn V rockets reached escape velocity though.
(missing ''it' - "you don't need _it_ to reach "?)
William Chamberlain I think either “it to” or “to to” works. I chose “to to”.
Prof. A powered missile doesn't need to reach escape velocity to escape Earth's gravitational pull. Imagine something moving up at 1 metre per second (or 1 mph if you're American). Eventually it will leave Earth's influence. Escape velocity is only required for objects without their own thrust, i.e. projectiles.
You need more subscribers!

Why are there 34 thumbs down? Who is going around TH-cam that is so petty that they would leave a dislike on a video like this? I can't imagine being so miserable that I would ever do that. It's strange
It was me
@@jakejohnson6954 lol
Probably flatearthers who don't believe in real science. :-D
Hi Professor Dave. I'm still pondering for some time the nature of black holes from all the knowledge that I've been gaining from viewing these astronomy TH-cam videos on black holes and from applying principles of logic. I've been thinking that this statement "Nothing can escape a black hole, matter or light, because it needs to travel faster than light speed, and nothing travels faster than light speed" is not true for the following reason. When a black hole is in quasar mode it shoots a beam of electromagnetic radiation, which IS something that leaves the black hole, so it must be traveling faster than light speed. What do you think?
But that material does not leave the black hole, it never goes past the event horizon. It is part of the accretion disk surrounding the black hole.
@@ProfessorDaveExplainsThanks for the clarification Professor Dave.
short awnser: divide by 0
i just understood interstellar with crystal clarity thanks to this vid. fuck it man u really are amazing
I lived in the planet Martok for several years. One service they offered, was to compress your favorite asteroid into a black hole. If memory serves, on earth you had “pet rocks”. Think of these as our equivalent. The first thing I did when I arrived on earth was to buy a Pet Rock off EBay. Of course it is only a facsimile, but call me nostalgic!❤
i'll keep it in mind
and about things like hot air balloons they don't have a velocity of 11.2 km/s right and yet they go up very high almost out of the atmosphere where people feel no weight, I think with constant velocity which need not be 11.2 Km/s anybody can reach outer space, it is only when one is throwing something into the sky it needs 11.2 km/s to escape the gravity, otherwise if u have a rocket or something it can reach outer space slowly too.
With regard to Hawking radiation, how does the positive partical escape the "pull" of the black hole?
Hello, what do you mean by "black holes eventually die just like everything else in the universe"? What makes you think everything is dying? Aren't there some materials in stable forms which will remain unchanged til the end of time?
I don't think so, even protons and neutrons have finite half-lives, no matter how long.
How does hawking radiation escape from the schwarzchild radius? Can you please explain in a video thanks
I don't know if my question even CAN be answered, but would it be theoretically possible to build a device that forces particle-antiparticle pairs to form? If so, surely we could find a way to send the antiparticles toward a black hole at rate much faster than occurs naturally.
Hmm, well I can't think of a reason why we specifically couldn't do that, so maybe! A particle physicist would have a better answer.
Great video, but you need to work on your pronunciation of SchwarzSchild (you forgot the second S)- "Shvahts-shilt"
It is SCHWARZSCHILD not SCHWARZCHILD as you described, please take a brief moment to read it here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarzschild_radius
Thank you Professor
A "z" is just a backwards "s"
Finally someone who knows what they are talking about. I get so tired of being told you can escape from a black hole if you go faster than the speed of light. Once inside the event horizon there is no out every direction points to the
Singularity because space is infinitely warped .
I mean you can't go faster than light without breaking the laws of physics
Is the visual diagram shown in the video accurate? The one with the regular star, neutron star, and black hole.
I mean it's conceptually accurate.
I also recommend the pronounciation "Schwarz Shield", or better even "Schwarz Shild". Funny trivium: it appropriately enough actually means "Black shield".
Around 4:30, I'm not trying to contradict the Big Bang Theory but I have an idea I want clarified.
Near the beginning of the big bang everything was very dense. How did the entire universe (at the time) overcome gravity? Wouldn't it be near the density of blackholes? Am I wrong to suggest it might have been that dense? How does science answer this?
Thanks for reading and possibly replying. I'll search this up too.
There's a funny, maybe ironic situation I did not remember until a minute ago: this universe might be a blackhole inside another, larger universe.
I know there's an inflationary period, but I unfortunately do not understand the math or physics to this epoch. I have a lot to learn.
Hypothesizing that "our visible universe could be inside a large blackhole inside a larger universe" lacks evidence. I'm just throwing it out there for fun

This is so cool
Question: When a star goes nova, does it always produce a black hole? Second, when a black hole is formed, how come the energy released is not pulled back into the black hole thereby negating the outward push of energy? I hope that question made sense. I'm fascinated with this stuff but not completely in tune with the science behind it. Thank you in advance.
No the core has to be above a certain mass! It's all outlined in this clip, and also in more detail in the previous one in this series, on stellar evolution.
Professor Dave Explains Very cool I will view it this evening. Thanks for the quick reply.
Visualising the warp of spacetime of a black in a 2D plane is easy, but I'm having trouble imagining it in a 3D grid. Where would the event horizon be in a warped 3D grid?
It's definitely tough to imagine! And impossible to depict visually. But if we were showing it in three dimensions, the event horizon would be a sphere.
I rotate the 2d plane by 90 degrees to imagine something close to 3d
I mean, I imagine two 2d plots crossing
Crank Lucas did a song about this stuff
2:10 Errr, the Shuttle reached _orbital_ velocity, not escape velocity... even the Saturn V didn't do that, they merely put the Apollo spacecraft into a very elliptical orbit that brought it close to the Moon.
I don't understand, how have we sent things beyond earth's orbit without them reaching escape velocity?? like the probes we've sent to take pictures of other planets...those aren't orbiting the earth
Jarom Christensen Rockets don’t directly go straight up in the space, they try to go first in the orbit of Earth which reduces the consumption of fuel and after that they use earth’s orbit to direct themselves in the tangential direction to other planets. To escape from earth’s orbit in the tangential direction they use fuel. You can study more on this using a term called “slingshot”.
realy nice
2:08 most of them do not escape the earths gravity
But in 2:37, he said that black holes have 0 radius...
I thought that you couldn’t divide by zero?
*Illuminati confirmed*
That's why it is a singularity, I'd guess
Yup. 0 radius.
repeat after me: "ssh-varts-shield" - Schwartzchild
Professor dave please reply
If a thermodynamic system has more internal energy U then other does this means that the system with more U (internal energy). Will have more temperature T
It's impossible to determine the absolute value of internal energy. Question is illogical.
i love your intro
So would black holes even emit light if it wasnt for the event horizon? If they are infinitely small, we still wouldn't be able to see them, right?
If we were to compress a person into a black hole and compare it to the black hole of a star, what would be the difference between the depth of each of their space-time warp? If the person only contains a little mass, and we were compressed into a singularity, I would imagine if we were to hypothetically travel through that black hole, our space-time warp wouldn't be as much as the singularity of a large star. So does this explain the big bang at all? Perhaps the largest star had so much mass that it collapsed into a singularity and its particles would fall through the space-time warp to "puncture" or "penetrate" out of space and create a big bang? Didn't the big bang come from a singularity as well?
Wonder what would have you took an entangled pair of particles and sent one down a black hole... What would happen to the other in the pair? Just thinking...
Cool! Now how to make a naked singularity?
pervert!
@@MenacingPerson there's no denying ;)
What is the observable universe's swarszchild radius?
Do any cloud of h. And he is so big that his gravity pulls straight down to a blackhole or it need to be a star firs and follow the sequence
Professor Dave, I have a stupid question. Hypothetically speaking, if the escape velocity of an object is >c, can it escape the blackhole?
I suppose, but that's physically impossible.
