I'm having trouble getting to the Readme file to check the copyright issue. Can you link to that too? Thanks.m4r35n357 said:This is the updated version, free download

A black hole is a region in space where the gravitational pull is so strong that nothing, including light, can escape from it. It is formed when a massive star dies and its core collapses under its own weight.
We study black holes through various methods such as observing their effects on nearby matter and radiation, analyzing their gravitational effects on space and time, and using mathematical models to understand their properties.
There are three main types of black holes: stellar black holes, intermediate black holes, and supermassive black holes. Stellar black holes are formed from the collapse of a single massive star, while intermediate black holes are believed to form from the merging of multiple smaller black holes. Supermassive black holes are found at the center of most galaxies and are much larger than the other types.
No, once something crosses the event horizon of a black hole, it cannot escape. This is due to the strong gravitational pull that prevents anything, including light, from escaping.
Black holes themselves are not dangerous to us as they are located in distant parts of the universe. However, their strong gravitational pull can be dangerous to objects that come too close to them, causing them to be pulled in and potentially destroyed.
