- Black holes distort space-time -
The mass of a black hole is so dense and the gravity of its singularity so strong that, in accordance with Einstein's theory of general relativity, it actually distorts the space-time around it and not even light can escape.
- Massive black hole lies at the center of Milky Way Galaxy -
It is now thought that most galaxies are held together by super-massive black holes at their centers, which cluster hundreds of solar systems around them.
- A person falling into a black hole would be spagettified -
If a person was able to survive long enough to describe falling into a black hole, he would first experience weightless as he goes into free fall, but then feel intense "tidal" gravitational forces as he got closer to the center of the black hole.
