Black Hole Link Between Stars Discovered In Massive First

According to these scientific theories, black holes aren’t the only cosmic phenomena created by this process. If the star is the mass of eight of our suns or less, it is theorized that it will create a white dwarf; if the star has a mass between 8 and 30 of our suns, it is theorized that it collapses into a neutron star. Finally, if the star has a mass greater than 30 of our sun’s, it is theorized that it will become a black hole. 

Why has all of this been limited to scientific theory? In short, we never get to see the actual process of a star collapsing, so we have been left to study the aftermath of such events. Therefore, scientists have studied major galactic phenomena such as the Vela Pulsar and Crab Pulsar and created their theories based on the supernovas that most likely brought these neutron stars to life.
