  We look for spherically symmetric star or black hole solutions on a
Randall-Sundrum brane from the perspective of the bulk. We take a known bulk
solution, and analyse possible braneworld trajectories within it that
correspond, from the braneworld point of view, to solutions of the brane
Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations. Our solutions are therefore embedded
consistently into a full bulk solution. We find the full set of static
gravitating matter sources on a brane in a range of bulk spacetimes, analyzing
which can correspond to physically sensible sources. Finally, we look at
time-dependent trajectories in a Schwarzschild--anti de Sitter spacetime as
possible descriptions of time-dependent braneworld black holes, highlighting
some of the general features one might expect, as well as some of the
difficulties involved in getting a full solution to the question.
