what if all the black holes in the universe collided black holes these monstrous and seemingly voids of black space suck in everything that gets too close to them space dust asteroids planets and even entire stars the nearest one is 1600 light-years from us and in the region of the universe visible from the earth there are perhaps 100 billion galaxies each one has around 100 million stellar-mass black holes in the center ready to devour anything that gets close enough to its event horizon but what would happen if all the black holes in the universe collided keep
watching to find out we can't see them and some say they might not even exist but we know that something is there from the behavior of stars that orbit these strange phenomenon black holes lie at the center of almost every known galaxy some of them are active devouring the galaxies that surrounds it and some are dormant the ones that are feeding shoot out massive Jets of ionized matter close to the speed of light these are the brightest objects in the universe and they are also the largest some black holes are so big that it's almost
impossible to comprehend their size the largest one ever found is 17 billion times the size of our Sun everything in the Milky Way galaxy including us is orbiting a mostly dormant supermassive black hole called Sagittarius a this massive giant is 4.1 million times the mass of our Sun it's 26,000 light years away from us and right now as we speak it's tearing apart entire star systems and eating five times the mass of the moon every year that doesn't sound like very much and it's not because Sagittarius a is now a sleeping that could awaken if
another black hole collided with it we're always learning something new about this phenomenon some people think that a black hole just sits where it's at and doesn't move but you might be shocked to learn that's not true recently a black hole was spotted in space by the Hubble telescope its large bright ring of gas shining through the darkness of space and even more surprising it was moving for some reason this black hole was evicted from the center of its galaxy and right now it's blasting through space at 1,300 miles per second about 2,000 kilometers per
second what that means is there is a rogue black hole flying through space that is estimated to be 1 billion times more massive than our Sun it would take something massive to push this black hole from the center of its galaxy and into space at such speed another black hole black holes aren't usually traveling through space looking for something to eat but we now know it's possible that's somewhere from space a rogue black hole could be heading towards our galaxy and the collision would be epic on a cosmic scale there are so many black holes
in the universe that it is impossible to count them and there are even more we have not discovered if all of the known black holes were to collide together it would be the end of the universe as we know it some of these stellar giants would be so massive that they would easily swallow smaller ones and become even larger and if these black holes were like ours and the ones inside the andromeda galaxy then you could imagine the incredible cosmic Cataclysm if they all collided at once perhaps creating a black hole so massive that it
would suck in the entire universe entire stars would be stripped and sucked inside planets ripped apart collisions of planets and stars those star collisions possibly creating more black holes it would be a chain of cosmic destruction we are already on a course with the Andromeda galaxy which has 35 known black holes and in 3.75 billion years if humans are still here on earth we will be able to look up into the night sky and see Andromeda and it's trillion stars as it approaches our own galaxy this galaxy will collide with us and the spectacular collision
could merge both galaxies into a khalaqtu k-- giant black hole larger than anything we have ever seen but there is no need to worry that a black hole will suck us up or that all then will attract each other and collide black holes are lazy eaters that do not suck in everything around them unless they are moving through space you need to get really close to one in order for it to suck you into it even if our own Sun suddenly collapsed into a black hole it would not swallow the earth with all these amazing
things happening in our universe it almost seems as though the universe exists simply so that we and living creatures like us might live to see and experience it billions and billions of years from now everything will slip past the event horizon past the Cosmic Microwave Background even all the black holes what is beyond there is a mystery that we may never know the dark void of space left behind would be the final resting home of the entire universe we hope you enjoyed this video and hope you give us a like if you think we deserve
