Abstract
In the framework of the relativistic theory of gravity, we show that a universal mechanism for stopping the process of gravitational compression of a body with large mass with its subsequent radial expansion appears because of the gravitational field tensor. This excludes the gravitational collapse and the possibility of black hole formation.
