Black holes

 

For this assignment I would like you to answer these questions

1.  Explain what a black hole is, describe its characteristics (size, mass), and give a detailed explanation on how they form.  Make sure to explain what the Schwarzschild radius and event horizon are.  Describe the two types of black holes.  

2.  Describe the observational evidence for black holes that are discussed in Chapter 15.

Bonues:   Do a little research on the Internet (read a few articles) and summarize how astronomers were able to make this image of a black hole.  This came out in April 2019.
