No, only small ones, the supermassive ones are at the centre of galaxies.

Is it true if a black hole swallows a supernova nothing will happen?

This is NOT true. Black holes are formed when massive stars explode in supernovas, blowing much of the star into space and crushing the core into a black hole. One of the things that WILL happen is a massive pulse of x-rays and gamma rays.


Will our sun become a red giant then will it become a supernova then a black hole?

No, our sun is not destined to become a supernova and/or a black hole. It will become a red giant, but it is not massive enough to cross the threshold and become a candidate for a fate like either of those last two.


When heavier elements form by fussion a massive star expands into a what?

ether a pulsar or a black hole depending on the mass of the star


How do the lives of the most massive stars end?

Less massive stars end up as white dwarfs. More massive stars end up as a supernova or a neutron star or for the really massive stars...as a black hole. As a star ends its time in the main sequence it either becomes a Red Giant and end its life as a White Dwarf or becomes a White Super Giant and ends its life in an explosion (supernova) and if it's really dense it becomes a neutron star or a black hole as mentioned above.


How does a supernova or a black hole get created?

I guess in a way, you could say Supernovas do create black holes. But a supernova is a reaction from a star running out of nuclear fuel and the gravitational pull makes the star collapse in on itself. This creates the supernova, which is like an explosion that can outshine an entire galaxy before fading from view over several weeks or months. Supernovas when at it's brightest, can radiate more energy than our sun emits over 10 billion years. Blackholes are created in the same way, the supernova is practically the explosion of the star. When a supernova has faded, it will leave behind a supernova remnant. But the supernova will create either a blackhole, and if the star was massive, a supermassive black hole, or a white dwarf. Once faded, the white dwarf will become a black dwarf. Blackholes are a region of space in which the gravitational pull is extremly great. So great not even light can escape its pull, yet the light can never be sucked in. You could say light travels at speed "C" and a blackhole's gravitaional pull is a power of "C", cancelling each other out, the light goes nowhere. Once having being sucked past a point called "Event Horizon" on a blackhole, theres is really no escape. The Blackhole's gravitaional pull is centered at a point called singularity. There is believed a Supermassive Blackhole is at the centre of the Milky Way, the galaxy we live in. No one knows where a blackhole leads to. It could be a rip in space that could transport us to a different universe or just crush us, which its gravitional pull would most likely do as we got closer to singularity.

How does a star turn into a red giant?

A star turns into a red giant when it lose fuel and die. If a star isn't a massive star then it expands into a red giant. After that it becomes a white dwarf. If its massive then it collapses on itself and turns into a black hole.


Can black holes appear out of no where?

no because black holes can only form through supernovas.


What is the cycle of the stars?

Stellar Nebula - Average Star- Red Giant - Planetary Nebula - White Dwarf Stellar Nebula - Massive Star - Red Super Giant - Super Nova- Neutron Star Stellar Nebula - Massive star - Red Super Giant -Super Nova - Black Hole


When the largest stars die they first become supernovas and then they become?

Black holes


What star last longer a massive low or medium?

a medium becomes it because a red giant then it explodes , a low only becomes a white dwarf and a massive becomes a supernova or a black hole

Do supernovas form black holes why?

A supernova can become a neutron star, or a black hole. Whether it becomes one or the other depends on the mass that remains after the supernova explosion (remember, part of the matter is blown into space). The more massive objects become black holes. As to the "why", this is because after a certain mass limit, there is no known force that can stop gravity.


Who is stronger sonic or Mario?

Mario is obviously stronger than sonic. What strength feats has sonic shown? Mario can destroy entire castles as if they are nothing! And he can punch out stars and survived Supernovas that destroyed the universe and giant black holes and lava casually!!!
