No; the whole eye is protected by a thin clear membrane called the cornea. Light enters the iris, passes through the lens and is absorbed by the rods and cones on the retina. No light is reemitted or reflected, so we do not see any colour in the centre of the eye and it appears black.

Does a star with another star create a black hole?

Not necessarily, but the likelyhood for matter from one star falling on the other and increasing its mass beyond the threshold for a black hole might be a bit larger than usual.


What is a sellar black hole?

Perhaps you mean stellar black hole. Stellar means related to a star, so that refers to a black hole that results from the collapse of a star. Actually that's the ONLY confirmed way to create a black hole (other ways are a bit hypothetical), but the term is also used to refer to a black hole which has approximately the mass of a star - to distinguish it from the supermassive galactic black holes in the center of most galaxies, as well as the intermediate-mass black holes found in star clusters.


What could a black hole on your skin be?

A black hole on your skin could be a mole or a freckle. It is important to monitor any changes in size, shape, or color of the black hole, as it could be a sign of skin cancer and should be checked by a healthcare professional.


Is the pupil a black hole?

It appears black because light rays entering the pupil are absorbed by thetissuesinside the eye.


Imagine the Earth is getting close to the event horizon of a very massive black hole What will happen to the Earth?

As the Earth approaches the event horizon of a massive black hole, tidal forces would become so strong that it would be stretched and ripped apart. The intense gravitational pull would cause the planet to disintegrate into a stream of particles before eventually being pulled into the black hole beyond the event horizon.

What would happen if you jumped into a Kerr black hole?

If you jumped into an "ordinary" Schwarzschild black hole, you would be crushed into a long line of particles, which means death by a black hole. If you jumped into a Kerr black hole, the same process may occur, but the only thing different is that a Kerr black hole spins, and a Schwarzschild black hole does not. That answer needs a bit more detail. Please use the "related link" below.


What will happen if you were on the Moon and a black hole appeared?

It depends on where the black hole appeared, but irrespective of that bit of minutia, the same things would happen on the Earth as on the Moon if a black hole appeared somewhere, that being nothing with regards to a specific person.


What part is the white of the eye?

The white part of the eye is the sclera, the colored part is the Iris, and the 'black dot' (which is actually just a hole reaching the back of the eye) is the pupil

What would a black hole look like from Earth?

From Earth, a black hole would appear as a dark, featureless region in space, surrounded by a glowing ring of hot gas and dust spiraling into it. The black hole itself would not emit any light, making it invisible to the naked eye.


Why can't we see a black hole?

We can't see a black hole because it does not emit any light. Its gravitational pull is so strong that even light cannot escape from it, making it invisible to the naked eye.


Why the pupil of the eye is black?

The pupil actually hasn't got a color at all, it's a hole that opens up into the eye. It only looks black the same way a keyhole or any other opening into an unlit cavity looks black.


What is the little black dot in the center of your eye and what does it do?

The little black dot in the center of your eye is called a pupil. The pupil is basically a hole in our eye that light enters through and makes it so that you see. But really on the inside of your eye you are looking upside down.


What is the difference between a Scchwarzschild and a Kerr black hole?

A Schwarzschild black hole is a non-rotating black hole. The Kerr black hole is a rotating black hole. Since the latter is more complicated to describe, it was developed much later.A Schwarzschild black hole is a non-rotating black hole. The Kerr black hole is a rotating black hole.
