The Schwarzschild radius marks the event horizon of a non rotating black hole, the boundary from inside which not even light can escape. It is given by two times the gravitational constant times the mass, divided by the speed of light squared. Remarkably, any mass compressed below this radius becomes a black hole, so you can compute the horizon for anything from the Sun to the Earth to yourself. This calculator accepts a mass in kilograms or in solar masses and returns the radius in meters and kilometers, plus the diameter for scale. The Sun would need to shrink to about three kilometers across to become one. Everything is computed locally in your browser.
