Black Hole Ping!...................
Are you sure you didn’t leave anyone out?
The janitor was late that day................
The number of sources of data input around the world to the image-generation algorithm for this project has always been crazy large. Fortunately, the kids have really been cooperating with each other!
“Black Hole Ping!...................”
That sounds racist!
Maybe SETI will give me a shout when the first LGM is documented.
It seems to me that if time stands still at the Event Horizon, nothing can fall into a Black Hole. Time is a sine qua non for motion.
All you brilliant minds out there, tell me what you think.
Also, if time doesn’t exist, maybe gravity doesn’t either.
Matter, as it encounters the Event Horizon, becomes ‘spaghettified’, stretched to impossible lengths and becomes ‘eventually’ just a long line of subatomic particles, that melds with the matter in the Black Hole.
You, of course, would have ceased to exist long before that happens to your body. The intense heat from friction and radiation coming from other matter that is being compressed would have killed you and fried your innards to dust...........
This is like the time Mike became Michelle.
Holes of color.
Depends on your point of view.
For a distant observer, what you said is true.
If you are the one falling in, it’s another story.
That’s relativity. The flow of time depends on velocity, and on gravity.
Time is relative.
To an outside observer of you falling into a Black Hole, you would appear to freeze at some point as the light from your image gets slower and slower.
But to yourself, the surroundings are still normal and you get no sense of time slowing down.
But then if you manage to ‘skirt’ the Event Horizon, and come back out from annihilation, you will discover that time has passed by you at an ever increasing rate until you emerge into normal space-time and find that thousands of years have gone by and you owe a lot of back taxes...............
M87 is classified as a supergiant elliptical galaxy with several trillion stars.
I thought we we’re done with that on 11/5/2024..... Oh?
If time ceases to exist, does not space also cease to exist?
Good point.
God is beyond time and space. The human mind cannot conceive of Someone Who can create the cosmos--not just once, but every instant as He destroys the old and recreates the new, which we perceive as the passage of time.
Mine certainly can't conceive of it. So I listen and receive--and struggle to comprehend the incomprehensible.
Black Holes Matter.
