This essay will explain what a black hole is along with how black holes can be detected and how black holes are formed. Moreover‚ this essay will also provide evidence of the existence of black holes and locate where in the universe black holes occur. Firstly‚ a black hole is seen as a body in space whereby a strong gravitational pull causes a suction to be formed. The strength of the gravitational pull is so significant due to the different forms of matter being squeezed into a small hole which
