Black holes are among the most mysterious and fascinating objects in the universe. These massive, invisible objects are formed when a star collapses in on itself, resulting in a region where the gravitational pull is so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape. In this quiz, you'll get to test your knowledge on black holes and learn more about their formation, properties, and impact on the surrounding environment. From the smallest black holes to the largest, this quiz will cover it all. So come along, explore the depths of space, and discover the mysterious world of black holes!
