Could the Earth be swallowed by a black hole? – TED Talk by Fabio Pacucci

From asteroids capable of destroying entire species to supernovae that could exterminate life on Earth, outer space has no shortage of forces that could wreak havoc on our planet. But there’s something in space that is even more terrifying than any of these — something that wipes out everything it comes near. Fabio Pacucci examines the probability of Earth being gobbled up by a black hole. Lesson by Fabio Pacucci, directed by Astroplastique.
