Different ways Black Holes are formed
1:50:36 - 1:56:33 (05:56)
Black holes are usually created when a star is at least three times as big as our sun, but they may also be formed through smaller ones eating each other up or may have been formed during the big bang.

Black holes happen when a star dies and collapses.
1:50:36 - 1:52:15 (01:39)
Summary
Black holes happen when a star dies and collapses. The fusion process that makes heat and light in stars undergoes a supernova after burning through hydrogen, helium, and heavier elements up to iron, when fusion no longer works.

Summary
It is believed that black holes were formed by little ones eating each other up or could have resulted from the big bang event. Stars that are at least three times bigger than the sun can create a strong enough gravitational field to form a black hole.

Summary
Black holes are a mathematical phenomenon that can originate in various ways, resulting in various masses and spin distributions. Our galaxy has a huge black hole at its center, and studying the properties of black holes can give us insight into their origins.
