"Now, a new interpretation of fundamental physics attempts to solve both of these conundrums by making a daring claim: at certain scales, space and time simply do not exist."

Black Holes is a raciss term.

Spaghettification! Now you’re making’ me hungry! If I can just stretch out my snack,,,,,,,,,

he or she will witness your motion toward the event horizon slow dramatically over an infinite amount of time; from your now-traumatized friend’s perspective, you never actually cross the event horizon

Ah yes, the old "Fly suspended in amber"......

“a daring claim: at certain scales, space and time simply do not exist”

Seems like a not-so-daring extrapolation from the Big Bang theory. Or even from the assumption that the universe derives from *something* not defined by time or space.

Really, all we ever have is Here and Now.

Did they just forget to put an “A” in front of Holes in the title?

[null and void]

Black holes are outta sight!

Any of you a physicist published in a peer reviewed journal or know one? If so, please mail me. Had a project come across my desk and need one.

[samtheman]

I don’t see how they got to the title from the text of the article.

Do you face your demise in the heart of a black hole, or don’t you?

Jumpin' Jiminy Cricket! If they'd just pay attention to me and give me my Nobel Prize right now for LibWhacker's Law, they wouldn't be so confused. LibWhacker's Law says that if you are a pathetic weak and squishy little critter whose very life depends upon a dozen or more parameters being in some precise tight little range, then there is no way in Hell you're going to survive inside a black hole where those parameters are going to be all over the board (or even nonexistent)... Temps in the trillions of degrees, pressures that would crush a thousand-mile-wide ball of solid iron to a subatomically thin goo, no oxygen, no water, no booze, no ice, no steak, no burgers, everything flying around at the speed of light, etc., and then BOOM, suddenly time disappears, space disappears and... Why ARE you asking me such a dumb question such as "Could I survive it, Perfesser? Please tell me I could live through it." No, you could not. Not even. End LibWhacker's Law.
