... • A black hole is an object with gravity so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape. • No light, radio waves, or any other form of radiation can escape a black hole, so it is not possible to detect black holes directly. • Astronomers detect X-rays coming from hot gas located near a black hol ...

Color comes from light, an electromagnetic wave that travels in straight lines in all directions from a light source through both space and objects. Matter usually does not produce light, rather, it is reflected, absorbed, or passe ...
