Black holes can make stars shine super bright, like a cosmic fireworks show. When a star gets too close to a black hole, the black hole pulls it in, kind of like stretching spaghetti. This makes the star glow really bright before it disappears inside the black hole.
Examples
- If Earth were near a black hole, we might see a glowing ring light up the sky.
