    Not only Interstellar (awesome movie btw), but an anime OVA in 1988 called Gunbuster (6 eps from the creator of Neon Genesis Evangelion) explored time dilation quite dramatically. Reaching speed of light speeds and the rest around them aging differently. Really a tearjerker and a 2nd series were made somewhere in the 2000's called Diebuster.

    I love any and everything about black holes because we have no idea what happens around and definitely have no clue about inside them. It is just so awesome to think about what might happen around and inside one. Space and time doing weird and crazy things. I believe time travel is a real thing around black holes and for our minds that are on this earth and everything is strictly 60 seconds, 60 minutes and 24 hours of every single day is the strangest thing I can think of. It’s just awesome to think that something like this actually exists in our universe and galaxies.

    Anton Rocks!!! From a/my smpleton(s) point of view: The light travels from our earth/sun and gets beamed back at us.. which would mean it's possible that we could watch a movie playback of our planets existence 2x the travel distance of the light to and from the black hole. It also means other distances of black holes are doing the same "video" playback... which could mean sometime in the future we could playback the movie from us at just about any point in history's past. Thus a stupid simpletons thought. Gr8! Peace ☮💜Love
    "Photonic Histogram" is a phrase I read in another comment?

  • @gptiede
    @gptiede 19 днів тому +4

    From the point of view of someone watching someone else fall into a black hole, the person falling would seem to move slower and slower and their light would be red shifted (as the video says) due to time dilation near the black hole. But if you turn this around and ask what does it look like from the point of view of the person falling in, their time dilation would seem non-existent to them. Instead they would see the rest of the universe going faster and faster in time. The image of the Milky Way should get disrupted as the Andromeda Galaxy hits the Milky way, then all of the stars would go out and the universe grow dark. This is an effect that did not seem to be shown in the NASA simulation.
    A fun think to think about -- from the point of view of a person approaching the event horizon, the universe would be seen to rapidly age. In essence, the black hole is a short cut in time to the end of the universe ... what ever that means.

    Thanks Anton. this is really well done.
    4:29 It is actually quite amazing that we have a kind of photonic histogram of the universe captured in this layer, but so partial and scrambled that it would be near impossible to reconstruct the image of any past object. If only photons carried a record of it's origin so we could piece the jigsaw back together :)

    Regarding the assertions here. For every assertion about event horizons there is a contradictory counter assertion. If you suggest any one assertion you get flamed by the opponents. In my mind ALL assertions regarding event horizons appear to amount to nothing better than science fiction. aka no one "Actually" has a clue :)

      I used to work at an upright video game distributor, and we had a game come in where the vertical (horizontal due to the way they are put into the cabinets) drive was out, so all that appeared on the screen was a thin, straight line right down the middle of the display. But then I noticed something... If i looked at it and swung my head back and forth (kind of like owl's eyes), I could see the entire screen. It was like the 'ride' in 2001 ASO. I could literally stand there and jog my head just so and see the entire screen in that one line. So apparently the drive was working, but only made the screen a mm or so wide, and I (my brain) spotted it. This was way back in like 1981, so I was not thinking about event horizons quite yet.

    2:04 So, in a simplified sense, we can say that the photon ring around a black hole shares some conceptual similarities with the Hopf fibration, as both involve a kind of wrapping or projection to circles in space. The photons in the ring are essentially wrapped around the black hole in a continuous manner, akin to the continuous parameterization of circles in a Hopf fibration.

    Imagining an alternate version of humanity- with regard to our technological and scientific understanding- where we did not develop the understanding of how electricity behaves. That, we did not have volts to explain the energy needed to move a charge across the volts distance, and everything else that we currently utilise in order to predict the behavior of electricity. And instead, that version of humanity only understood electricity in terms of newton-metres. Just as a form of energy that is tangential to kinetic energy.

    Its great to think this is accurate: but there is a BIG factor almost everybody overlooks when talking about dense gravity wells (post-stellar remnants): TIME. Specifically, Time DILATION.
    Near the event horizon tidal forces + gravity = almost on par with v = c for time dilation:
    In all probability you'd see 'fast night sky' change rapidly as you got closer and closer to the event horizon.
    Because not only would particles be destroyed/absorbed by the dense envelope of debris/dust around the BH, but because of gravitational lensing, doppler effect, and other phenomenon. The galaxy could appear to be 'spinning' around you, and you'd be able to see stars wobble around as fast as tops on a table.

    Why do they say the black holes gravity is so strong that light can not escape? To my understanding, light I produced when the electrons of an atom gets excited and moves to a higher level and the light is produced when the electron bounces back to its original level of orbit.
    As a black hole would not have any functional atoms, light could not be produced after the atoms are ripped apart or joined the singularity

    Nothing happens afterward. If any time at all passed from the perspective of an item at the event horizon, “all of time” would pass for the external observer. It’s in the math γ = √(1 - v²/c²). Warped spacetime would tear you down at an atomic level until you were a light years long trail of quarks and gluons. But if somehow you were to survive the event, you would remain at limbo upon reaching the event horizon until enough hawking radiation was emitted to make the horizon smaller. This would take place gradually over trillions of years from an outside observers perspective

    The fact that they simulated a non-rotating black hole while obviously every real example is spinning makes the whole visualization pretty pointless. I understand that the simulation of a spinning black hole would be enormously complex and take up a huge amount of computing time - but then again, non-spinning black holes were visualized already more than 10 years ago… so what‘s the point?

    As a total layperson in this field, I favour the hypothesis that that a black hole has no interior. Space/Time can not exist "inside" a black hole. All conserved properties are retained on the surface of the event horizon. The idea of an interior is an illusion based on our evolved assumption of euclidean geometry. Going inside a black hole is analogous to going north from the north pole.

At some point they end up within corresponding Schwarzschild radius, and while the ship is still in empty space surrounded by that shell of massive things, this whole arrangement is now inside a black hole...

      That's not quite how it works. Only if the astronaut somehow resists the gravity and hovers near the horizon, then they can see the outer universe accelerated. If they just fall freely, light from outside struggles to catch up and they don't see this "fast-forward effect".

    In addition to the firewall (which in part is a result of the falling subject's local time running ever slower relative to the rest of the universe, and thus their subjective experience of the hawking radiation coming off the black hole and the in-falling photons from the universe around then being hyper blue-shifted to death-ray levels... [Inhales]) I believe the rate of evaporation of the black hole due to hawking radiation would appear to accelerate faster and faster as you near the event horizon. Since our faller's time would run infinitely slowly relative to a distant observer at the event horizon, i don't think in practice that our faller can actually ever reach the event horizon, instead, if they could somehow survive the ongoing firewall effect intact, they would see the black hole evaporate away in front of them... (In practice I think the faller's mass gradually begins to count as part of the hole's mass as they approach the horizon, and the hawking radiation process begins robbing mass from them too.)
    I just attended a talk by Professor Brian Cox where he talked about a potential divergence in realities between faller and observer: the faller experiences the crossing of the event horizon, and reaching the singularity, but the observer sees the faller incinerated at the event horizon and could detect emissions they would associate with the "ashes" of the faller (ignoring the near infinite red shift that would decrease their photons' energies below the observer's threshold of detection). He accounted for this discrepancy by invoking wormholes that form at the singularity and spew the faller's "ashes" out just above the event horizon.
    I don't think he needs the wormholes, because i don't think there's any space to traverse beneath the event horizon, nor any time at the event horizon in which to traverse the boundary... The event horizon IS the singularity - unreachable and always destined to shrink away from the faller as they approach, popping like a bubble infinitely close in front of them (destroying them utterly in the process) and depositing their quark-gluon-neutrino-whatever plasma remains (and the remains of everything else it has "consumed" over the hole's lifetime, including the star it originally formed out of) in the extreme distant future when the hole finally evaporates away.

  • @jamesrussell7760
    @jamesrussell7760 19 днів тому

    Much has been made of the spaghettification you would experience as you approach the event horizon. But to get that far, you would first have to cross the accretion disc, a region of intense radiation and very high temperatures. So, I don't think you need to worry about the intense gravity because you would be a crispy critter by the time you reach the horizon.

  • @markhalson7078
    @markhalson7078 19 днів тому

    I thought that relativity meant that the time dilation would be experienced by the ship as it approached the event horizon, not the observer. The ship would appear to accelerate towards the event horizon but appear to fade away to nothing as it got closer, from our perspective. Meanwhile, from the perspective of the travelers in the ship, as time dilation increases, the event horizon would appear to be approaching faster and faster, in fact it would appear to be approaching faster than normally possible. In the same way, a ship traveling at 95% the speed of light might arrive at Alpha Centauri in just 4 1/2 yrs, while the occupants may only experience a few days travel, and from their perspective, they would appear to be crossing the distance much faster than the speed of light would allow. Have I interpreted this incorrectly?

    HOWEVER, you're being unfair imo. Lets not forget that NASA suffers from budget cuts over and over the past years and is making a valiant effort to attract/involve the public. As you admit there are still lots of unknowns which means that decisions had to be made. Is there really a point to talk about how they could make different decisions? There always be someone who will support theirs, and someone who thinks otherwise.
    Another (little) thing I noticed is that although BH definitely spin, the film's interstellar BH is *completely unrealistic* by professor's Kip Thorn own admittion. In an interview he said that he was asked by the director to design a BH with an extreme time dilation and initially he objected that in order to be THAT extreme it would have to be ridiculously spinning. So, you're kinda wrong there.
    Lastly, (and that's kinda TMI) I respect NASA so much that I would gladly leave behind my sh!tty life to just be able to deliver them their coffee and have a chance to talk to them bc I am too stupid to be a scientist. 😢

    I took GR many years ago. What I can say is this: since BH do grow in time (evidence: there are supermassive black-holes that have grown!) it is clear that mass falls in in finite observer time. I guess one needs to solve the GR equations of the BH+ the mass falling in (i.e. stress energy tensor on the right side of the equation is non-zero) rather than just computing the mathematical abstraction of a massive worldline falling in the fixed spacetime background.

    • @deinauge7894
      @deinauge7894 19 днів тому

      the result would interest me too. I cannot exclude the possibility that even the most complete calculations give the same: that the external observer always sees the infaller as being outside of the horizon. Because there is always light coming from him at any small distance from the horizon, so that it needs arbitrary large time to escape.
      The only effect that can break this argument is, that light comes in quanta, s.t. there is no constant stream of light waves. But that doesn't need the exact calculation, because the infalling observer emits a finite number of photons before passing the horizon anyway.

    IF Hawking Energy exists as theorized, it would prove the possibility of non-rotating black holes...indeed it'd imply the inevitable fate that all BHs would become non-rotating.
    ALL other post-stellar remnants BOTH achieve very high rotation (spin) but also lose it gradually. (Neutron stars (pulsars), white dwarfs). To assume that BHs can't 'bleed' rotational velocity via energy loss = presumptuous at best: everything points to contrary.
