CAITY: So the core of a star collapses when the rest of it is exploding outward. So that core will continue to collapse under its own gravity and it can form one of two objects. It can become something called a neutron star or it can form into a black hole.
Can a star implode?
When the core collapses, the blast wave slams into the dense material above, which thwarts the explosion. Instead of creating a supernova, the star implodes, forming a black hole.
Do black holes explode or implode?
Answer: Black holes don’t really “explode”, which implies that they generate a large outburst of energy which ultimately tears them apart, but they do have outbursts (also, unfortunately, referred to as “explosions”).
