What Survives Inside A Black Hole?
Season 4 Episode 27 | 11m 3s | CC
Black holes are the result of absolute gravitational collapse of a massive body: a point of hypothetical infinite density surrounded by an event horizon.

Nothing can travel faster than light, and so nothing can escape from below the event horizon- not matter, not light, not even information.
