Um, would that be an ‘inside’ observer? From the outside masses would be orbiting faster and faster until they just winked out of visual perception having zipped apart inside the event horizon. But from the inside temporal flow would appear to slow ... the heart of a black hole maybe the coldest place in the Universe?

Seems counter intuitive but the physicists believe an outside observer would see the object come to a halt. (The object would fade as the light shifted to infrared.)

My friend Penelope is sitting still at a safe distance, watching me fall into the black hole. What does she see?
