Why can't they tell anyone about what they saw? Why not send a drone?
So if I fall in I become a sphagetticat? Sign me up.For those outside, whether the person is alive or not becomes a schrodinger cat.
it's just a nice way of saying "ripped apart at an atomical level", so yes, very death.Would sphagettification be death, or would it be like time relativity? Appearing weird to observers but it's fine for you.
This was my first thought reading this and made me laugh.
Yeah that's more or less how I feel, like I doubt the human body could survive the gravity of a blackhole torn apart or not so the whole premise is like we could survive, if, we had a ship with some kind of anti gravity strong enough to counter it because at least then it and you wouldn't be dismantled on the way down but we probably won't so nope, still dying.Seems like you'd still get instantly pulled to the middle and squished into nothingness.
science diagrams that look like shitposts
What if a black hole just make you enter a denser universe where everything functions normally, like a compressed universe, what if a black hole is like winzip.
Pretty sure.So this basically boils down to "crossing the event horizon doesn't instantly kill you." Didn't we know this already?
I wonder if we can use one of a pair of quantum entangled pair to get info "out" of the event horizon. What happens as state change to one of the pair, should in theory happen to the other if it's paired in that manner, right? We could mimick binary using such pairs and get info streaming.
You would. Basically all objects travel in straight lines with gravity bending spacetime in a way to make those straight lines look like curves. Earth is traveling in straight line but the suns gravity bends space in such a way that this line becomes Earths orbital path.Seems like you'd still get instantly pulled to the middle and squished into nothingness.
Imagine a whirlpool of fantastical myth and legend, existing in an otherwise calm sea. A big freaking hole in the ocean that water is somehow flowing into. If you're in a boat that can do 30mph, you could maybe get sort of close without falling in, but get too close and you can't power your way out. When you're that close, things are really tumultuous. If you instead stay a mile away, things look calm, and the current is only flowing very slowly toward the whirlpool, so you're not in any danger.I don't get this. What is the event horizon even representing on a supermassive blackhole if there is no spaghettification there? How is that the boundary where gravity is so strong that light can't escape, but it has no impact on a person at that distance from the center?

I will do it when I am 120 years old and about to die anyway.
Might as well have one last adventure.
Threshold isn't variable but they believe there is a gradient to the severity of the pull based on distance to the center, like how you experience Earth's gravity differently on the moon, at sea level or on a mountain.This doesn't make sense to me. I would think the gravitational pull at any black hole's event horizon would be exactly the same regardless of how far from the center, because that's the threshold where it becomes too powerful for any light to escape. It's not like that threshold is variable.
Even if we could, I doubt it would give us any useful information. The event horizon is simply the outermost point at which everything falls into the black hole faster than light. Beyond that limit, everything would still be falling toward the center faster than light, so you wouldn't be able to see anything except maybe the stuff falling in after you. You still wouldn't be able to see the singularity.I wonder if we can use one of a pair of quantum entangled pair to get info "out" of the event horizon.

Not if it's a dormant black hole (not currently feeding on any matter at the time)The radiation and temperature would kill you before you even got close to the event horizon.

I guess I'm not sure how it works, but I figured a larger black hole would just have a larger gravitational pull at the center? So it's not like the gradient is building up to the same end force just more spread out, but instead ramps up to a higher number at the end, so gradual increase in gravity could be similar despite increased distance. Though if the gradient is nonlinear then it probably throws all of that out of whack anyway.The stretching/ripping doesn't come from event horizon, it comes from the gradient of the gravitational field being so extreme that one end of your body experiences orders of magnitude more force than the other end only a few feet further out. Gravity is proportional to 1/distance^2, so the strength of the force rapidly increases closer to the center (and rapidly decreases further out).

I read you would get strung out into molecular spaghetti while time dilates so it feels like an eternity. Thanks but no thanks.
Well either that or a catspaghetti!
Consider the Earth versus a kettle on a burning stove. The water at the bottom of the kettle is very hot but the water at the top is not that hot. If you touched the bottom with a finger you'd only burn a part of it. Earth is too large for you to feel a temperature differential between the heat at the core and the heat on the surface but we all know it's there.I guess I'm not sure how it works, but I figured a larger black hole would just have a larger gravitational pull at the center?
It doesn't matter that your nervous system is sluggish. You'd be able to think for the same reason that you don't get spaghettified: the acceleration due to gravity is roughly the same everywhere on your body. When all the sluggish stuff is accelerated in the same direction at the same rate, you'll feel basically the same as if you're in perpetual freefall in a space station above the Earth.I'm unsure if thoughts are even possible inside the event horizon even assuming you could find one and fall into it. My instinct is that the electrons that make up your nervous system would be unable to move along their pathways in the gravity well, so you'd perceive nothing and feel nothing. Your nervous system is actually much slower than the speed of light.
Ah, I did not consider that. Sluggish nervous system + time dilation would probably cancel out, would be trippy.It doesn't matter that your nervous system is sluggish.

Surely the physicists calculated the quantum entanglement measurables of love into their equations.
You don't experience time dilation happening "to yourself."Sluggish nervous system + time dilation would probably cancel out, would be trippy.
