... Our Sun is part of a huge wheel-shaped collection of stars. ... Astronomers have long suspected it was a very massive black hole, and that every galaxy had such a central mass, created early in the history of the universe. ... However, unless that object happens to be headed directly at the black hole (a relatively small target) it will just swing around and fly away again, like a comet making a pass at the Sun. The velocity acquired in falling towards the black hole also helps it escape. ...

... If the mass of the collapsing star is more than three solar masses, however, no force can prevent it from collapsing completely to become a black hole. What is a black hole? Mini black holes . ... For Further Reading About Black Holes A black hole is a region of space in which the pull of gravity is so strong that nothing can escape. ... A black hole with a mass less than three solar masses would not form on its own; its gravity is too weak to cause it to completely collapse in on itself. ...
