One of the best known examples of an event horizon derives from general relativity s description of a black hole a celestial object so dense that no nearby matter or radiation can escape its gravitational field.
The darker hyperbolas which bound the top and bottom of the diagram are the physical singularities. The supermassive black hole at the core of supergiant elliptical galaxy messier 87 with a mass about 7 billion times that of the sun as depicted in the first false colour image in radio waves released by the event horizon telescope 10 april 2019. An illustration of spacetime warping by a black hole image from andrew hamilton imagine a star near the event horizon of a black hole.
The event horizon is the threshold around the black hole where the escape velocity surpasses the speed of light.
The dotted 45 lines which separate these four regions are the event horizons. Light going away from the black hole is redshifted. According to einstein s theory of special relativity nothing can travel faster. Near a black hole space and time are warped.
