Black holes may be the most extraordinary objects in the cosmos: born in violent explosions of very massive stars, they warp spacetime around them, devour stars, and generate gravitational waves detectable on Earth. The largest black holes, lurking in the hearts of galaxies, can outweigh billions of suns; the smallest, yet to be detected, may be smaller than an atom and evaporate in a flash of gamma rays.Black holes occupy the edges of our knowledge. Unravelling their mysteries presents one the most exciting challenges in human history, requiring all our capacities as a species, and ultimately advancing the goal of understanding the past, present, and future of this exciting place we call the cosmos.
"Black Holes: Unknown Horizons" is a 32-minute production of Double Dome Films for "la Caixa" Foundation and the Madrid Planetarium.
After the show, a live show presenter takes you on a tour of black holes across the universe, examining which could pose a threat to Earth.
