The question really should be "why do black holes only come from very massive stars".

A black hole is formed when a super massive star explodes as a supernova. The remains at the core would collapse and become a very high density body, so dense that light will not escape the surface.

Where did a black hole come from?

Most black holes form when massive stars exhaust their fuel and their cores collapse. There are also supermassive black holes at the centers of most galaxies. Scientists are not sure how supermassive black holes form.


Why do stars rotate around black holes?

because stars come from the blake hole


How are black holes most easily identifed?

Black holes do not emit light, so black holes can not be seen this way. But black holes emit X-rays, but stars are not hot enough to emit X-rays. When black holes suck up stars, energy goes to the black hole, and come out as X-rays.


Why does the black hole suck stuff in?

The reason that a black hole does this is because of its immense gravitational pull. It is so immense that nothing, not even light can escape. Therefore, anything that gets too close to a black hole would be sucked in. Yes, it does. Black holes come in various sizes. It is currently believed that most if not all galaxies have super-massive black holes at their centers. Sometimes these massive black holes will be in a very active state, literally consuming whole stars at a time.


Black holes refer to?

black holes come from dead stars like our sun it may turn into one when they die they become really big then explode and some become into a black hole if not it becomes into a black or white dwarf


Were did a black hole come from?

Black holes came from old big stars that went supernova as it dies. Supernova causes the star to collapse into a black hole


What is the conclusion about stars?

Stars are massive celestial bodies that emit light and heat through nuclear reactions in their core. They are crucial for creating and dispersing elements essential for life and play a key role in maintaining the structure of galaxies. Stars come in various sizes, colors, and ages, with some eventually evolving into supernovae or black holes.


How is a massive star formed?

Simply put, massive stars come from massive clouds called neblulae.


How are super-massive black-holes in the center of galaxies?

millions of black holes are in all of the galaxies, and in the center of all large galaxies is an enormous black hole that makes all the stars go around it. the power was a million times greater 350 years ago. this cycle will repeat over again. Scientists have come to believe that there is very probably a supermassive black hole in the center of the Milky Way, and that there may be supermassive black holes at the centers of many galaxies.


How come all stars don't form into black holes?

A black hole forms only when the star is large enough that the gravitational pressure exceeds the quantum degeneracy pressure.


What is the name Stephen Hawkins's discovery that stars in space are so dense they can collapse?

black holes. Yes it sounds like the question is about black holes. Stephen Hawkins has done a lot of work in this area, but he did not come up with the theory originally.


What are black holes capable of?

The power or force exerted by black holes is all relative to the size of the black hole. Because black holes have many different sizes, they exert different amounts of forces for each black hole. However, I'm assuming that you are talking about black holes like the super massive black hole located in the center of our galaxy. These kinds of black holes are huge and are so powerful, they can trap light which is traveling 286,000 miles per second. So if you're talking about the big galactic black holes seen in the movies, the answer is the black hole is amazingly powerful and can trap anything that goes past its event horizon (point of no return).
