Question+7+Black+Holes

What is a black hole?

**What are black holes?**Have you ever had to vacuum your bedroom? When you do, watch closely because you will see the dirt and crumbs start to move towards the vacuum cleaner. A black hole is similar to a vacuum cleaner, cleaning up debris left behind in outer space. However, it is not suction power that makes things fall into a black hole. Suction would not be strong enough. Instead, a black hole uses the power of gravity to pull things towards it. Found by Mrs Crispin 3/8/11 Check out this great link [|NASA for kids]
