Imagine you're holding a flashlight near the edge of a super strong black hole. The light from your flashlight gets stretched and bent, like a rubber band being pulled, this is black hole light warping! It’s so powerful that it can make distant stars look squished or doubled.
Examples
- A star behind a black hole appears twice, like looking through a magnifying glass.
- Light from a spaceship near a black hole turns red and stretches out.
