Astronomers see collapsing star become black hole

"The typical view is that a star can form a black hole only after it goes supernova," Christopher Kochanek, professor of astronomy at Ohio State University, said in a news release. "If a star can fall short of a supernova and still make a black hole, that would help to explain why we don't see supernovae from the most massive stars."
