The idea of an object with gravity strong enough to prevent light from escaping was proposed in 1783 by John Michell, an amateur British astronomer. In 1795, Pierre-Simon Laplace, a French physicist independently came to the same conclusion.Black holes, as currently understood, are described by the general theory of relativity. This theory predicts that when a large enough amount of mass is present in a sufficiently small region of space, all paths through space are warped inwards towards the center of the volume, preventing all matter and radiation within it from escaping.

What ideas did Stephen hawking help develop?
he helped develop the big bang theory and also theories about black holes with their temperature and radiation!
I dont believe that space or Black holes are vacuums what theory or theories can I use to back this?
Technically, space is not a complete vacuum. There is always a very low-density amount of interstellar gas and dust. The idea of black holes being like 'vacuums in space' is a crude simplification created so that young children can have a basic concept of them. Black holes pull material in via gravity, not suction.
Can black holes dies?
Black holes do not die but they can evaporate.
Why are black holes round?
Black holes are round because they are formed from dead stars and white holes. As you can guess a star is a sphere and that is why black holes are round.
Are dead stars black holes?
Yes. They get sucked into black holes all the time!
Who formulated relativity?
Albert Einstein formulated the special and general theories of relativity.
What if nursing theories were not formulated?
environmental theory
According to newton what is a black hole?
Newton's theories do not (and cannot) predict black holes, so Newton has nothing to say on them.
Do black holes go into different demensions?
Probably not, but there are some interesting if highly unlikely theories.
When did Stephen hawking begin making theories about black holes?
1970 - Stephen Hawking's essay titled "Black Holes" won the Gravity Research Foundation Award in January 1971.
Does black holes elongate matter that is sucked in?
That's what the mathematical theories suggest would happen. We have never observed this, and with any luck we never will be close enough to see this. Black holes are dangerous places.
Who discovered black holes and subatomic particles that radiates for them?
The discovery of black holes was not due to a single person; several people participated, and at first, it was all very theoretical. You can find some of the history behind the theories and discoveries in the Wikipedia article on "Black hole".
A black hole has a tremendous amount of?
Gravity. This a known and to some extent an arguably proven fact. But there are also theories that Black holes contain Anti-matter, an entity in inverse existence to "matter".
How did scientists come up with all this information about black holes?
Scientist first formulated it from the laws of physics (namely relativity) and figured out what affect they would have on the space around them. Once they figured out what the effect would be, they looked out in space and saw the effect, thus proving black holes.
How did Sir Stephen Hawking's collect his evidence about the black holes?
He did not collect evidence. He simply proposed a "what if" then solved the equations of general relativity and quantum mechanics to find out what would happen in such a situation. The results of that analysis are his theories of microscopic black holes that evaporate and eventually explode.His theories have no effect at all on black holes that formed from stars, they don't evaporate.Note: this is exactly what Einstein did when he developed the theories of relativity. He had no evidence, he just proposed a "what if" then determined what would happen in that situation. It took others years to collect the evidence to show those predictions (strange as they were) to be correct.
Is there such a thing as spinning black holes in space?
Yes. The most up-to-date cosmological theories state that a black hole is far more likely to be rotating (spinning) than not.
Why can't anyone formulate a scientific theory?
Many people have formulated scientific theories.
