black holes It’s one of the most interesting astronomical objects in our universe, and it forms from accretion of matter that it sucks in from its surroundings, making it unable to escape everything that ends up inside it because of the great gravitational force that they contain. Specifically, these black holes could be responsible for the disappearance of our universe sooner or later.


Stephen Hawking explained in 1974 that black holes weren’t really black, but rather emitted A type of particle we know as Hawking radiation.. It is because of these particles that we can witness the extinction of our universe, because Hawking radiation destroys all those bodies that touch it.

In addition, the physicist’s theory was extended much later and it was decided These particles aren’t just emitted by black holesbut Any object of sufficient mass can hurl this radiation into space and the gradual elimination of other celestial bodies.

All this worried many scientists, because although there was still a long time before such a catastrophic phenomenon as the extinction of the universe, but equally Sooner or later that may happen.
