What Would Happen to You Inside the Black Hole

The nearest black hole is 1,011 light-years away. This black pearl was found in the Solar System. It was hidden in orbit with two other stars, which you can see with the human eye. Scientists have been studying this system since the 80s, but this winter, it revealed its main secret. This particular black hole is considered relatively small. But despite this, its mass is four times bigger than our Sun, and it’s 2,500 light-years closer to Earth than the next nearest black hole. If we were to make a model where the Earth’s distance to the Sun was only .05 inches, you would have to travel about 4 miles to get to this black hole. But our galaxy, the Milky Way, is about 100,000 light-years wide. So the distance of 1,011 light-years doesn’t seem that long in comparison. But before you jump inside this black giant, you should understand that a journey to such a dangerous object as a black hole is a one-way ticket... Learn more about your ad choices.
