Black holes

[Mr. Whappaaaa]

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face="Verdana, Tahoma, Arial" id=quote>quote<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>By definition a black hole is a region where matter collapses to infinite density, and where, as a result, the curvature of spacetime is extreme. Moreover, the intense gravitational field of the black hole prevents any light or other electromagnetic radiation from escaping. But where lies the "point of no return" at which any matter or energy is doomed to disappear from the visible universe?

Or in Simpler Words

A black hole is a region of spacetime from which nothing can escape, even light. <hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face="Verdana, Tahoma, Arial" size=2 id=quote>


Its true that the above definition is qualified for the relevent meaning of BLACK HOLE. Recently i see the dictionary & this word is also giving some other aspects

1. Something that uses up a lot of money like

I'm worried that the project could become a financial black hole

2. Black Hole of CALCUTTA

A small room used as a prison in Calcutta, India. In 1756, 146 British prisoners were put into it, and most of them died in one night. People sometimes say that a small very crowded room or dark place is "like the Black Hole of Calcutta".
