I saw it on the news the other day, some prof. discovered that as you entered one a massive wave of heat radiation would blast you and it would be almost impossible for anything to survive it, man made or not.

Don't forget about gravity so strong, not even light can escape it.

Everything about this stuff is speculation.

No scientist has ever been dispatched to into outer space to study a black hole first hand. We have no space craft able to perform this task either.

Therefore, how much accurate data can one gather by squinting into the ass end of a telescope?

Don't forget about the world being flat or that the sun revolves around the Earth. sound familiar to you, well it goes to show that even the most learned of our population get it wrong from time to time so you will forgive me if i don't trust a scientists word. A lot of people are confused about our own vast knowledge and the difference between fact and theory. A lot of theories are accepted as fact just because they have not been proven untrue, yet. And thats how we trick ourselves into thinking we know more than we actually do, theories are not a true representation of knowledge, their just educated guesses. Theories are often a representation of years and years of work, of refining information to form one coherent thought. The problem with theories is that for the more intricate ones we have not reached the point where we can test them to the point of making them fact.

I knew a woman once that nothing intelligent could escape from her mouth.

We just don't have anything that could even come close to withstand the power of a black hole...

these are just theories mostly, they gotta go there and see to prove it.

lol whipnet. Also I do not think anyone will ever be able to study a black hole up close, for obvious reasons. Even if we did get out that far it would be in hundreds of years and someone else would have told us what they did.

Do you mean a worm hole?


a black hole nothing survives.

Indeed.

You know its gonna be hard to survive something when light can't even find a way out.

no whoa I did not mean a worm hole, if you are talking to me that is. Worm holes are theoretical, black holes are not. I was just saying that the theory of using a black hole for time travel would be massively hindered by the fact that probably, a massive wave of radiation would blast you. Noone actually knows what would 100% happen though, probs just die.

haha don't forget you'd get ripped to pieces before your mind even had a chance to catch up with the thought of you crossing the threshold into that immense gravitational pull. haha!

oh right, sorry my mistake.... I read the title of the thread wrong ! haha.

Of course we cant time travel or do anything useful by going into a black hole. I thought that would of been obvious anyway.

We really know almost nothing about black holes.
Black Hole Info

in new york they created a fireball that collapsed into itself and became a blackhole for a millionth of a millionth of a billionth of a second and then vanished.

yeah I heard about that, sounded pretty cool.

i cant believe this thread is even going on, of coarse a black hole doesnt allow light to escape....if it did we would see black holes through out the night sky, black holes do however "evaporate" radiation.....basically once you hit the event horizon of the black hole there would be no turning back and the gravity would rip your body apart before you even got to the actual "hole" part of the black hole

Noone said a black hole let light escape...
