A black hole is like a super strong vacuum cleaner in space. Imagine you have a giant trash can that sucks everything, even light, into it. If you're too close, you get pulled in and never come back! Inside the trash can, things get squished into a tiny dot called a singularity.
Examples
- A black hole is like a vacuum cleaner for stars
