If the sun were to suddenly becoming a black hole, what would happen to us here on Earth? To many people’s surprise the factor that would kill our life forms on earth would be the loss of heat and light and not from getting sucked into the black hole. There is not complete evidence to support that black holes exist but there are many signs and scientific theories that support there existence. Black holes can be a mysterious subject but when breaking down the knowledge into sections for the knowledge going into finding a black hole, how a black hole is created, and what happens if one were to visit a black hole one will be able to understand what they are.

Supernova can occur in one of two ways, either near the end of the star life or in a binary star system. Inside of a binary star system one of the stars would need to be a white dwarf which is a star who has depleted most of its energy and begins to take away energy from the other star in the system ("What Is a Supernova?"). If it were too depleted too much energy from the other star it would begin to go supernova due to raising its core temperature, igniting carbon fusion, and begin to produce nuclear fusion it didn’t need to produce ("ABOUT SUPERNOVAE."). The second case occurs when the star can no longer begin nuclear fusion and its mass begins to melt into its core where it eventually gets so heavy the star can no longer support its gravitational field and explodes under its own weight ("What Is a Supernova?"). According to NASA Science, as long as the star’s core is three time the mass of the star itself it will start becoming a black hole by first creating an event …show more content…
Schwarzschild came up with his mathematical formula to determine how big a black hole could be by taking the mass and then finding the radius of what the black hole of would assuming it were flat with the equation would be rs = 2GM/c^2 (O'Connor, J J, and E F Robinson.). While most black holes of varying length in radius act the same there is some differences for supermassive black holes. According to the article “Institute of Astronomy, a supermassive black hole can be “105-1010 times the mass of Sun” while regular black holes are only “3-10 times the mass of the Sun” and while regular black holes are found anywhere within the universe supermassive black holes can only be found in the center of a
