A Black hole is a dead star that can be at least 10 to 15 times as massive as the Sun. If a star gets too big it goes into supernova form (an explosion) and bang you have a black hole .A black hole is sometimes said to be a “space vacuum” because the force of its gravity and it cannot fill up. if the sun became a blackhole the orbit of the eath around the sun would not change.Don't get worryed about black holes sucking us up because the sun will never turn into a black hole and the closest black hole is 8000 lightyears away thats about76000000000000000 Km away (P.S this is not perfect it might be 76000000000000001 Km) If you wont to see how a black hole is made go on [] p.s slow it down a little bit
