Black holes are like super strong magnets in space, they pull everything toward them, even light. What’s inside? It's not a solid ball, but the stuff that makes up stars gets squished into something so tiny and heavy, it creates a point where we don’t know what happens next.
How They Work Imagine dropping a bag of marbles into a bottomless pit, they get crushed more and more as they fall in. A [black hole](/search?q=black%20hole) is like that pit, but made from the remains of stars.
