    A watched pot never boils. Just enjoy what you have while you still got it, kid.

    It is not a void. It is a collapsed star so dense, with gravitational pull so great, that nothing escapes it, not even light

    One minor correction: a black is not necessarily “huge.” Scientists have hypothesized the existence of small ones, some as small as an atom, though those ten to evaporate (yes, that can happen) so quickly none would be left of any that started at the Big Bang. Black holes are massive, compared to their size, but they can be small in diameter. (Yes, I hear the student in the back row: “Even a small black hole has an infinite diameter!” Let’s not confuse the issue! It would still have a small circumference.)

    A black hole is no void. The word “hole” is a misnomer. On the contrary, a black hole is a most massive object. Nothing falls “into” it, as media like to say, but everything is attracted, crumbled and fixed to the surface of this object. The “black hole” has a certain diameter, which is increasing, as long as other objects fly by and can be attracted. Their mass adds to the mass of the BH. Would it be a “hole” or a “void”, it had no mass and would not attract anything.

    Dr. Asimov called them “collapsed stars”. Voids are empty, the core of one is tightly packed matter and energy.

    It doesn’t have to be huge.
