black holes
In the field of astronomy , a black hole is called a spatial area that cannot be seen but that, according to the theory of relativity , has the capacity to absorb the energy and matter found in its gravitational field. This is because its mass concentration is very high, developing a gravitational field that even absorbs light.
In other words, we can say that, according to the knowledge of astronomy, there is no material particle capable of avoiding the action of the black hole . On the other hand, in the 70s, the respected British scientist Stephen Hawking pointed out that black holes can also emit radiation , although this does not come from their interior but from their accretion disk, that is, from the structure of dust and gas that surrounds them. surrounds and feeds it while being attracted to it.

In the case of the term hole , it is not uncommon for people to omit the letter g , turning it into "hole" ; Children, on the other hand, tend to say "hole." Needless to say, both variants are incorrect.
