10 Ways The Universe Could Kill Us All Tomorrow If It Wanted To

6. A Stellar Black Hole

Ok, so you know how black holes are so massive that we think that's what our entire galaxy is orbiting around? Well, there are some black holes out there that aren't so massive, some are about the size of our sun and as a result they're pretty much just free to roam around and annihilate things at will. The main problems with black holes (ok, one of the many, many, many problems with black holes) is that there is virtually no way to detect them until they start interacting with some other object. Of course, a black hole's favourite means of interacting with something is to suck it in and crush it into a singularity, so if one is lurking around our solar system it probably wouldn't be spotted it until our own sun started to look like a Cheese String. After that, all the molecules on earth would be sucked towards its core and compressed to the size of a singularity. That means that you, your dog, your iPad, every pizza on earth, the city of Birmingham, Kanye, and whatever else, would occupy a space no bigger than a meatball.
