You know a little bit about the formation and qualities of black holes. You are also familiar with some basic vocabulary connected with this area of astrophysics. Play the game to check your knowledge of the facts and language used for describing those objects. Then do the tasks based on the information from the game.

Wiesz już trochę na temat powstawania czarnych dziur i ich oddziaływania na otaczającą je przestrzeń i materię. Zapoznałeś/zapoznałaś się też z terminologią związaną z tą dziedziną astrofizyki. Sprawdź swoją wiedzę na temat czarnych dziur oraz języka służącego do ich opisywania, grając w grę. Następnie wykonaj zadania oparte na informacjach z gry.

Choose correct words to complete the summary. Only one answer is correct in each case. Scientists had known about the existence of black holes since the beginning of the 20th century but they had to wait until the 1960s for     1. observational randomphysics     evidence to confirm their theories. Nowadays astrophysicists know that black holes are objects formed from stars which reached the end of their life and exploded. Their mass was thrown out into space and what’s left is a     2. gravitationalstellarcelestial     core. It has such strong gravity, which is not     3. absorbedbalancedconfirmed     with any matter any more, that it     4. collapsesmovesgenerates     on itself creating a black hole. Whatever comes close to it will be sucked in by its gravitational     5. corefieldresearch     and will never be able to escape. Nowadays, scientists are trying to generate black holes in the lab. When they manage to do that, it will be a real     6. breakthroughprocessevidence.
