| summary | In 1783, John Michell, an English rector, proposed the idea of "dark stars" to physicist Henry Cavendish, suggesting these celestial bodies were dense enough to trap light due to their intense gravitational pull, making them invisible. The Royal Society published his theory in the following year, but it wasn't until about two centuries later that the term "black hole" was coined to describe such phenomena. |
