Fact of the Day: 08/10/2020

However, have you ever wondered what would happen if a star got sucked into a black hole? If a star got sucked into a black hole, contrary to popular belief, it wouldn’t just disappear like many other things. In fact, some of its elements and particles would get sucked in leaving a jet stream of plasma shooting out from the black hole at high speeds for many miles, streaking space with its colorful light.
