It's a common misconception that black holes always have matter swirling into them. ... As this matter gets closer and closer to the black hole it piles up and a large, fairly flat disk forms. This is called the accretion disk , because matter from this disk accretes (that is, falls in) on the black hole. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

... While staring up at the dark night sky from their homes all over the world, they were startled to witness a bright point of light appear in the sky where there had been none before! After studying the new star, they decided it was a nova (which just means ?something new in the sky?) and they named it ?Nova Vul?. A nova is powerful explosion on a star that causes it to instantly become much brighter. You can see the remains of Nova Vul in this space photograph! ...
