Friday Facts

Black holes collide a billion light years away, producing gravitational waves detected on earth. Though nobody has ever seen one, a black hole is not an empty place in space that cannot be touched, but an object so dense and with gravity so intense that it cannot be seen because even light cannot escape from it to be seen from a distance. Well, it could be seen by inference, hiding stars and galaxies in the distance behind and beyond it so that it appears as a black hole in space. 
Depending on where one reads online, and a black hole’s size, temperature in a black hole is somewhere between incredibly hot and a fraction of a degree above absolute zero.

The other thing my inquiring mind discovered this morning is that Engelbert Humperdinck’s real name is Arnold George Dorsey, but there are so many car facts clogging my mental traffic that I won’t be able to remember that when the time comes. 

Not sure how to work subtly into a sermon.
