The Very Hungry Black Hole Conversation Starters

  1. Talk about how you think it would feel and what would happen if you flew a special super safe spaceship into a black hole.
  2. Imagine you are hosting an eating contest for black holes. What would be on the menu and how much do you think the winner could eat?
  3. Draw a cartoon strip timeline of the process of a black hole sucking up a star, eating it, burping, and releasing quasar energy. Remember – it takes 100’s of millions of years!
