Black Holes Explained - From Birth to Death
The video delves into the mysterious nature of black holes. It starts by explaining how stars, primarily made of hydrogen atoms, collapse under their own gravity. In their core, nuclear fusion converts hydrogen atoms into helium, releasing a vast amount of energy. This energy counteracts gravity, maintaining a balance. However, for stars larger than our sun, the heat and pressure in the center allow them to fuse heavier elements until they reach iron. Unlike previous elements, the fusion of iron doesn't generate energy. As iron accumulates in the star's core, an imbalance occurs, leading to a supernova explosion. This can result in the formation of a neutron star or, under the right conditions, a black hole...
