The sun The Sun is the star at the center of the Solar System. It is a nearly perfect ball of hot plasma, heated to incandescence by nuclear fusion reactions in its core. The Sun radiates this energy mainly as light, ultraviolet, and infrared radiation, and is the most important source of energy for life on Earth. • Surface temperature: 5,772 K • Distance to Earth: 149.6 million km • Radius: 696,340 km • Age: 4.603 billion years • Mass: 1.989 × 10^30 kg • Gravity: 274 m/s² • Spectral type: G2V Hottest part core The hottest part of the Sun is its core, where temperatures top 27 million degrees Fahrenheit (15 million degrees Celsius). Location The Sun is located in the Milky Way galaxy in a spiral arm called the Orion Spur that extends outward from the Sagittarius arm. The Sun orbits the center of the Milky Way, bringing with it the planets, asteroids, comets, and other objects in our solar system.

Black holes are regions in space where an enormous amount of mass is packed into a tiny volume. This creat...

The White Hole

A white hole is a time-reversed black hole – a region of space-time where matter spontaneously appears and explodes outwards, rather than implodes and disappears as with a black hole. Advertisement. White holes are essentially the opposite of black holes, in that they spit out light and matter, rather than trapping it. What creates a white hole? So then what's a white hole? White holes are created when astrophysicists mathematically explore the environment around black holes, but pretend there's no mass within the event horizon. What happens when you have a black hole singularity with no mass? White holes are completely theoretical mathematical concepts. Who invented white hole? The possibility of the existence of white holes was put forward by Russian cosmologist Igor Novikov in 1964. What happens if you are in a white hole? No spacecraft will ever reach the region's edge. Objects inside a white hole can leave and interact with the outside world, but since nothing can get...
