Sentences with phrase «intense gravity»

Black hole, cosmic body of extremely intense gravity from which nothing, not even light, can escape.

Standard theory held that a black hole's intense gravity pulled all that material toward the singularity in the center, where space and time as we knew them came to an end.

Their idea was to mimic the properties of a cosmological black hole, whose intense gravity bends the surrounding space - time, causing any nearby matter or radiation to follow the warped space - time and spiral inwards.

A black hole's intense gravity also tends to attract gas and dust, which forms an «accretion disc» around it.

Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity predicts that a black hole's intense gravity bends passing rays of light.

It's actual laughable when you think about all the danger in the universe, the high speeds, the intense gravity the large scale of the universe, who could have guessed that all of this is happening above us all the time.

Tidal forces, due to the intense gravity from the black hole, can destroy an object — such as a star — that wanders too close.

The information would basically remain encoded in an infinite number of low - energy photons racing to get out of the black hole, but stuck at its event horizon by the black hole's intense gravity, according to a study in Physical Review Letters.
