Schwarzschild metric

For those of you who are not familiar with the above equation, equation (1) is known as Schwarzschild metric. Here ds is a metric measure of coordinate distance r, coordinate time t and coordinate angles theta and phi. The term R_S, the Schwarzschild radius, refers to the radius of a black hole event horizon, and c refers to the local speed of light. R_S is directly proportional to the mass that creates the metric through R_S = 2GM/c^2, where G is the gravitational constant and M is the mass interior to r.
