This dynamic results in a mesmerizing celestial spectacle, with tails rotating around the Sun like cosmic flags, always aligned with the solar wind rather than the comet’s movement.
In essence: Comet tails are solar wind-driven wonders that always point away from the Sun, not the direction of travel.
Black Holes: Not Cosmic Vacuum Cleaners
Our popular image of black holes as cosmic monsters devouring everything in sight is exaggerated. Black holes don’t actively "suck" matter in the way science fiction suggests.
A black hole's gravitational pull depends solely on its mass, following Newtonian physics. If the Sun were replaced by a black hole of equal mass, Earth's orbit would remain unchanged, as gravity at that distance would be identical.
