What time dilation? this threads is gonna make my head explode before chaosUT2k4 comes out with all these big words.kibble wrote:Seriously, don't bring time dilation into argument.

In a nutshell: as you get closer to a singularity, you will speed up. Due to its infinite mass, you will get closer and closer to lightspeed. Because particles cannot reach lightspeed, their relative time will slow, eventually "stopping" entirely. But to someone a safe distance away (several hundred lightyears, anyone?) they will appear to travel normally.
Even I don't understand this fully, but, hell, I'm thirteen, what do you expect from me?

Oh, we could be laughing about it,
Making the most of the true British climate
Oh, it's getting hot in here,
Must be something in the atmosphere

People generally are surprised by my age. Especially a few years ago.
Cancer? That is easy enough. The solution ends up with a container containing the cancer cells.
And a larger container containing the rest of the person

Read Hawkings 'Universe in a nutshell' (I hope that's the correct title as I only have the german version). It's a good book.Ironbird wrote:great your 3 years younger than me and your making my head explode with this weird crap.

Im a bird that's guarantied to break your window.
And before you read it (a wonderful book by the way, and written in a way that anyone can understand), completely expel from your head what Kibble said above, as he completely fudged that post...
Time dilation has nothing to do with you approaching lightspeed. It has to do entirely with the gravitational force produced by the black hole. It is such a powerful force that it actually warps the flow of time, bending it so that a certain entity of matter can exist in a larger timeframe, and due to the increasing tidal forces, the closer you get, the larger the time dilation.
Did you know that, if you were able to stand within the center of a star collapsing into a black hole, the tremendously intense gravity of so much matter instantaneously being crammed into a single zero-dimensional point would cause such an extreme time dilation that you would see all time for the duration of the universe's lifespan passing before your eyes in an instant?
Oh, and by the way - a black hole doesn't have infinite mass, kibble. It has as much mass as its gravitational pull has been able to consume, which is a single, finite amount. It does, however, have infinite density. Any non-zero amount of matter within the space of a single zero-dimensional point will have an infinite density.
