Black hole


 * Uldir Lochett: "If it's any consolation, nobody knows exactly what you feel when you cross the singularity of a black hole. It might be extremely painful when every atom in your body collapses into neutrons. And since time virtually stops, it could last a really long time."
 * Leaft: "You're trying to cheer me up."
 * ―Uldir Lochett to Leaft after learning their ship is approaching a black hole.

A black hole is a astrophysical phenomenon which has gravity so strong that even light cannot escape from their central point.

Characteristics
Black holes are an result of a supernova or hypernova explosion. When the central core of a super or hypergiant collapes, a shockwave tears through the star, causing an immense explosion. The explosion squashes the core, causing it to tear through the very fabric of space and time. Black holes have such high density, that remaining light gets instantly dragged into them, making them invisible. Most black holes are surrounded by accretion discs of material. The accretion discs are extremely hot.
