Black holes are like super strong magnets in space, they pull everything in, even light! If you get too close to one, time slows down for you. It’s like watching a video on slow motion while the world around you goes fast.
Examples
- Imagine walking into a black hole like stepping into a super fast roller coaster, time stretches out for you while the rest of the world zooms ahead.
- If your friend falls into a black hole, they age slower compared to you because time moves more slowly near it.
- Light bends around a black hole like a rubber band pulled by gravity, making distant stars appear warped.
