	Good quiz. I didn't get "binary system" though, because that term refers to any two objects in orbit around each other, not a black hole and a star in particular. You could also add terms like "gravitational lensing", "einstein ring", "Chandrasekhar limit", "photon sphere" and "gas jets".

	"Stellar collapse" should probably be an acceptable alternative to "supernova". Nice quiz!

	wording on a couple of these is weird. Event horizon is not a physical surface, but a mathematical construct. A binary system is ANY pair of similarly-sized objects in a common orbit. Two 'healthy' stars can form a binary system, as could a pair of planets, or a large planet and a small star, or two black holes, etc.
