Black Hole Quiz Questions
Simulated view of a black hole in front of the Large Magellanic Cloud. The ratio between the black hole Schwarzschild radius and the observer distance to it is 1:9. Of note is the gravitational lensing effect known as an Einstein ring, which produces a set of two fairly bright and large but highly distorted images of the Cloud as compared to its actual angular size.

I am just a 9 year old kid who likes space and studies it. i know a lot of stuff and the only answers i got wrong on a quiz about space was the people who discovered it and history and stuff like that. i know everything so you cant do nothin’
Only questions about ‘who’ went wrong.
